In this episode of Let's Talk About Kidneys, Dr. Saim discusses advancements in kidney transplantation, focusing on the benefits and risks of living and deceased donor transplants. Dr. Saim highlights that over 25,000 transplants were performed last year, with nearly 7,000 from living donors. Living donor transplants offer better survival rates and shorter waiting times. The waiting list has nearly 100,000 patients, with blood group O having the longest wait. Deceased donor transplants use KDPI to assess donor quality. High KDPI kidneys benefit diabetics over 50. The conversation also covers post-transplant care, recovery, and the use of new immunosuppressive belatacept drug. Future prospects include artificial kidneys and xenotransplants.
