The purpose of this study is to improve outcome for kidney transplant recipients. There has not been commensurate improvement in medium and long-term outcomes. Ongoing clinical research is necessary to improve transplant outcomes.
This study is looking at information already collected of transplant outcomes (short, medium and long-term complications and quality of life). This will specifically look at: 1. 10 year follow-up of steroid-free maintenance immunosuppression 2. A cross-sectional study of infection after kidney transplantation (with emphasis on infection in steroid-free recipients 3. An evaluation of the Delayed Graft Function (DGF) nomogram in Thymoglobulin treated recipients at the University of Minnesota
