Abstract

Rapid identification of patients at high risk for slow graft function (SGF) is of major importance in the immediate period following renal graft transplantation, both for early therapeutic decisions and long-term prognosis. Due to the high variability of serum creatinine levels after surgery, glomerular filtration rate (GFR) estimation is challenging. In this situation, kinetic estimated GFR (KeGFR) equations are interesting tools but have never been assessed for the identification of SGF patients.
