This presentation is designed to help all health care professionals who give care to patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) and require kidney replacement therapy in the form of transplantation. We will describe this therapy from the donor and recipient perspectives and for both the newly-transplanted and long-term patients. We discuss adjuvant therapies, such as medication to manage the health of the transplanted kidney and common complications that may arise.
