Why "Delayed Graft Function" is Due for a Rebrand: A New Era of Taxonomy, Policy, and Clinical Decision-Making

  • Summary

  • Kidney transplants are a life-changing intervention, but do not work immediately; this delayed graft function has serious implications for transplant programs, patient outcomes, and organ waste. Tune in as our host Dr. Anna Gaddy interviews Dr. Matthew Cooper to discuss the research and implications behind his co-authored special report, “Understanding Delayed Graft Function to Improve Organ Utilization and Patient Outcomes: Report of a Scientific Workshop Sponsored by the National Kidney Foundation”, published in the March 2024 issue of AJKD.

    Kidney transplant care teams can work collaboratively to say ‘yes’ to transplant and decrease the number of viable kidneys that are otherwise discarded. Read the article, listen in, and bring this important conversation to your kidney transplant community.

    Host: Anna Gaddy, MD, FASN, FNKF Contributor: Matthew Cooper, MD, FACS, FAST, FNKF
