Official title
Multimodal Ultrasound Assessment of Kidneys From Donation After Brain Death (DBD) to Predict the Risk Model of Early Postoperative Renal Insufficiency in Renal Transplantation
Overview
The objective of this observational study is to investigate the multimodal ultrasound parameters of kidneys from brain-dead organ donors prior to donation, in order to construct a predictive model for assessing the risk of early transplant renal dysfunction after kidney transplantation in recipients. The primary question this study aims to address is: Can multimodal ultrasound data from brain-dead organ donor kidneys accurately predict early post-transplant renal dysfunction? Ultrasonography, as a routine examination before organ donation, will be utilized, and the study results will be concluded within one year after participation in this study.
Interventions
- Diagnostic test Multimodal Ultrasound
Multimodal ultrasound data collection will be conducted on all organ donors meeting the research criteria.
Primary outcome measures
- chronic allograft dysfunction [Time frame: Development of chronic allograft dysfunction within one year following kidney transplantation.]
