Clinical Trial Summary

This observational study aims to analyze the results of comprehensive geriatric assessment and to monitor the development of functional status in geriatric kidney transplant candidates and recipients.

Description:

Kidney transplantation represents the best therapeutical option in patients in end stage kidney disease. At present, increasing number of older patients are referred for kidney transplantation. Patients' functional status has been shown to be associated with transplant outcomes. The comprehensive geriatric assessment (CGA) of functional and mental status in older kidney transplant candidates might play an important and supportive role in the pre-transplant evaluation process, including acceptance for transplantation. In kidney transplant recipients, this examination might be useful to evaluate the impact of pre-transplant status on post-transplant course. Also in KTR, CGA may contribute to the improvement of functional status and quality of life independently from the graft function.
