Influence of donor age on graft survival

In 2007 in Spain 43% of donors were older than 60 years. This produces a worse graft quality and probably a worse survival. Our objective is to analyze the influence of donor age on graft survival. We analyze retrospectively 216 renal consecutive transplants realized between 2000 and 2008. A univari...

Zusammenfassung:	In 2007 in Spain 43% of donors were older than 60 years. This produces a worse graft quality and probably a worse survival. Our objective is to analyze the influence of donor age on graft survival. We analyze retrospectively 216 renal consecutive transplants realized between 2000 and 2008. A univaried and multivaried study (Cox regression) was performed and Kaplan-Meyer test with log rank for graft survival. Follow-up mean of 40 months (+/-33,4 SD). The univaried analysis of graft survival showed that donor age had a significative influence on graft survival. (OR=1,03; 95% CI 1,01-1,05) (p: 0,009). Studying the relation between donor and recipient age we find an inverse correlation (Pearson's Correlation: 0,55. p
