@DrDanMO @NephRodby @accovic But it doesn't make it true 😏

[Nephrology Journal Club @NephJC]

@NephRodby @DrDanMO @accovic Well, we won't spoil all the details, but the primary outcome was similar to both CVVH and IDH; the so-called superiority is just a secondary outcome- trial was not powered for it and was interrupted earlier... lots to comment on in a future #nephjc

Final thoughts:
Transplant benefits are certainly not universal and require careful conversations about individualized benefits.
Up next- ASN #KidneyWeek26 in Denver, CO. Hope to see you there! Check out https://t.co/a0TcyB3N2H, become a donor and for party details.

#NephJC Consensus:
In most cases, DDKT can improve survival compared to continued dialysis.
Not all donor kidneys are created equal (SCD, ECD, DCD, DBD).
Discussion of recipient and donor quality should be undertaken during transplant evaluation, as well of goals of care.

Question 1
#NephJC #NephTwitter
So, should we transplant all ESRD cases?
It depends. SCD kidneys improved mortality in all studied groups. However, SCD kidneys may not be readily available for all waitlisted patients. Worthy of discussion with older, sicker patients.

[Nephrology Journal Club @NephJC]

Question 2
#NephJC #NephTwitter
Should older/sicker patients risk transplant?
These are the individualized conversations that are needed. Although older pts receiving poorer kidneys (ECD) didn’t show mortality benefit, QoL is still an important consideration.
