Do kidney transplants have a high success rate

The success rate of kidney transplantation is relatively high, and a successful kidney transplant can prolong the survival life of the patient and improve the quality of survival. Kidney transplantation is the transplantation of kidneys from a healthy person to a patient suffering from kidney disease or loss of kidney function. Generally speaking, the success rate of kidney transplantation is high in China, and it belongs to a relatively mature and successful transplantation procedure among human organ transplants. After successful kidney transplantation, patients can not only control the development of the disease, but also prolong the survival time, thus improving the quality of life. After the operation, patients need to take bed rest in the early stage, turn over appropriately to prevent bedsores, ensure sufficient sleep time, and do not overwork. At the same time, patients can supplement the right amount of high-quality protein, such as fish, milk, eggs, lean meat, etc., and eat more fresh fruits and vegetables, such as apples, bananas, strawberries and so on. Patients after kidney transplantation need to strictly follow the doctor’s instructions to take relevant medication, and at the same time follow the doctor’s instructions for regular review, once abnormalities occur, need to consult the doctor in a timely manner. The survival rate of kidney transplant recipients is more than 95% in 1 year, more than 80% in 5 years, and about 60% in 10 years, which is much higher than that of patients on hemodialysis or peritoneal dialysis. The main causes of death are cardiovascular complications, infections and tumors.
