【 摘 要 】

Background: Nowadays, many patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) experience the final stage of the disease, ie, ESKD. Dialysis and kidney transplantation are considered the usual treatment for this stage of the disease, among which kidney transplantation is the best treatment. Some patient needs a second transplant since this treatment is not always successful. Objectives: This study was done to evaluate the survival rates between the two kidney recipient groups (first and second transplants). Methods: The sample included all the first and second kidney transplant patients referred to the transplant center of Imam Khomeini Hospital in Urmia from 1991 to 2016. This study was considered the retrospective cohort analysis. Data were analyzed using SPSS software version 18 after completing the checklists. Results: A total of 245 people entered the study based on the inclusion criteria. The overall survival of the patients was 128.27 ± 294.29 months. The average age of the second transplant patients was higher compared to that of the first, and this difference was not statistically significant. Conclusions: In general, the results indicated that the patients with the first transplant have longer survival than the secondary can be reduced when the patients at risk are identified and treated.
