Transplant Pearls for the Hospitalist
On-call for a kidney transplant admission? Delve into early AKI patterns after transplant, examine non–drug-related pitfalls like seroma, UTI, and ureteral stricture, and identify evolving cardio‑metabolic risk. Apply sepsis treatment principles while calibrating immunosuppression. Manage the failing allograft and navigate retransplant, dialysis, and palliative paths—sharpening inpatient decisions and outcomes.

Learning Objectives
After completing this activity, learners should be able to:
  1. Delve into a comprehensive analysis of the early manifestations associated with acute kidney injury subsequent to organ transplantation.
  2. Examine complications arising post-transplantation, with a focus on non-immunosuppression-related issues, including seroma, urinary tract infections, and ureteral stricture.
  3. Identify the trajectory of cardiovascular and diabetic risk after kidney transplantation.
  4. Achieve a thorough understanding of sepsis, treatment methodologies, immunosuppression protocols, and long-term outcomes in individuals on long-term immunosuppression.
  5. Manage the failing allograft and navigate considerations for retransplant, dialysis and palliative care.
