What is the difference between the survival rate of kidney transplantation and hemodialysis in the elderly?

In the early stage of renal transplantation, it is generally considered that patients over 45 years of age have better effect of living kidney transplantation, but the corpse kidney transplantation is ineffective. The 12-year-old kidney / kidney survival rate was 62% and 57%, respectively, in the 60-year-old patients with cyclosporine A, and with the use of cyclosporine A and low-dose steroid hormones, preoperative and postoperative management Of the improvement, as well as the improvement of patient selection conditions, the elderly is no longer the main factor affecting the success of kidney transplantation.

Notes on Kidney Failure and Dialysis

In the early stage of renal transplantation in a variety of complications is the main cause of renal failure failure, preoperative complications or hidden diseases after renal transplantation due to surgery, the use of immunosuppressive agents and drug side effects, infected The incidence was significantly higher than the young patients with uremia, liver damage and heart accidents increased, short-term survival rate decreased, so in elderly patients with uremia kidney transplant survival rate depends on human survival rate.

Why Does Confusion Occur in Dialysis Patients

There are 6400 patients over 60 years of age who underwent hemodialysis and kidney transplant treatment at 83 kidney disease centers in Canada from 1987 to 1993. The 5-year survival rate of patients receiving kidney transplantation was 81%, while those who received hemodialysis 5-year survival rate of only 41%, if there is more than one combination of 5-year survival rate is lower. In terms of quality of life, kidney transplantation is significantly better than hemodialysis patients.
Therefore, in the absence of severe complications of elderly patients with uremia, kidney transplantation can be used as the preferred treatment. But to consider the risk of kidney transplant surgery.

Kidney diseases whatever the causes can gradually affect patients' daily life.
