KIDNEY TRANSPLANT PROGRAM LIVING DONOR EVALUATION PROTOCOL

1. Questionnaire/Consent for Evaluation
2. Pretesting: ABO, HLA, BMP, urine analysis  Calculate BMI  Calculate eGFR (MDRD)  Calculate eCrCl (Cockroft and Gault) If either calculation is below 80ml/minute, patient to bring in 24 hour urine collection to first evaluation or complete Iothalamate GFR per the nephrologist’s recommendation 3. Donor Phone Intake The Donor must initiate the first contact with the transplant team. At that time, the results of the family study are discussed with the donor and a brief history is taken. 4. First Evaluation  Meet with a Donor Transplant Coordinator  A complete physical with a nephrologist  Blood and urine tests  Chest x-ray and EKG  Abdominal and pelvic CT scan angiogram 7. Discussion of patient at selection meeting by multidisciplinary transplant selection committee.  Pre-op testing to be completed 7-10 days prior to surgery; tests include a final cross match with the recipient,  Stress echocardiogram for all patients over the age of 50  Mammogram for women over the age of 40  Colonoscopy for everyone over the age of 50  PSA for all men over 50 years old and for all African Americans over age of 40 • Age < 18 years old• Measured gfr <80 ml/min• Abnormal glucose metabolism• Proteinuria, Hematuria• Hypertension• BMI > 40• Active psychiatric disorder/inability to give informed  Family history of ADPCKD, < 30 years old in the Options
