Short description:

Long-term Care of Kidney Transplant Patients provides all aspects of long-term care of kidney transplant patients. Many of the chapters highlight unmet needs relevant to certain post-transplant events that influence survival. Chapters provide clinicians and researchers with opportunities to investigate and advance the science by performing studies than can alter the trajectory of specific post-transplant diseases which will improve long-term kidney survival further until we achieve "Transplant Tolerance."

Long description:
Long-Term Care of Kidney Transplant Patients provides details on topics relevant to kidney transplant including current survival rates, phases following kidney transplantation, transplant wellness, current immunosuppressive management, and alloimmune injuries such as early and late T-cell- and antibody-mediated rejections. Various nonalloimmune factors such as post-transplant infections, cardiovascular diseases, and cancers are discussed in special chapters. Chapters are dedicated to psychological and social factors influencing kidney transplant, followed by special chapters on pediatric kidney transplantation and multiorgan transplantation. The final chapter addresses transplant tolerance, and the conclusion summarizes all chapters and highlights potential novel advances that might become game changers in the kidney transplant field.

This comprehensive book is a valuable resource for clinical transplant physicians and surgeons, nephrologists, primary care physicians, as well as other healthcare specialists involved in the care of kidney transplant patients such as cardiologists and critical care physicians. It also benefits other healthcare providers such as pharmacists, psychologists, advanced nurse practitioners, pharmaceutical and diagnostic companies, and agencies involved in kidney transplantation.
