Assessment of Demographic and Clinical Characteristics of Donor and Recipient in Kidney Transplantation
Öz
Objective: This study aims to assess demographic and clinical characteristics of the donor and recipient in kidney transplantation.
Materials and Methods: The population was composed of kidney transplant recipients and donors who applied to an organ transplant centre in Turkey. A total of 71 people were reached. The researcher prepared the questionnaire used in the study. The form included information on whether or not the participant was a recipient or donor, living or cadaveric, some socio-demographic characteristics, whether or not the participant was treated with immunosuppressive therapy before transplantation, whether or not the participant was undergoing dialysis, and follow-up findings after transplantation (Blood Urea Nitrogen (BUN) /creatinine, eGFR, chronic kidney disease stage, haemoglobin/ white blood cell/platelet).
Results: The mean age of the participants was 37.42± 15.41. 50.7% of the participants were recipients, and 49.3% of them were donors. A great majority (82.9%) of those who were organ donors were married (p=0.007) when looking at “marital status”, one of the variables that made a difference. A great majority of the participants (91.7%) were transplant recipients who did not smoke (p=0.000). A moderate positive correlation was found between BUN values and creatinine values in patients before transplantation.
Conclusions: The results of this study are compatible with the literature in terms of both demographic and clinical characteristics of the donor and recipient
