Abstract:
Objective To analyze the clinical characteristics of single renal transplantation from infant kidney donation after death (DCD) and summarize the nursing measures for nursing the infants. Method The clinical data of 36 cases of single kidney transplantation from 18 infant donors from January 2014 to June 2016 in our centre were reviewed and summarize the nursing experience. Results Pulmonary infection occurred in 3 cases, incision infection occurred in 2 cases and graft vascular complication occurred in 2 cases. Urinary fistula occurred in 2 cases, ureteral obstruction occurred in 1 case, delayed graft function (DGF) occurred in 16. Postoperative follow-ups for 1 to 20 months showed all the grafted kidneys survived and 34 of them were well recovery in view of renal function of grafted kidney and the rest two had the grafted kidneys resected because of arterial and venous thrombus in them. Conclusions The renal transplantation from infant DCD is difficult. The nurses should handle postoperative care to the patients, paying attention to the complications. On the other hand, intra-and post-operative monitoring of blood pressure, control of input and output and early observation of complications and treatment is of value for the improvement of survival rate of grafted kidneys, reduction of complication incidence and propelled recovery of the patients.
