Kidney Transplant set Questions and
Answers
What is an organ transplant? - answer When people make the decision to become
an organ donor, they are allowing a donation of their organs from their body for
transplantation of another human beings purpose.

What is the difference between a deceased-donor and a living-donor? - answer The
difference between a deceased donor and living is that decease means that the organs
are being taken from a recently dead person's body whose organs are still in good use.
Living donor means that the donor is donating a organ by having it surgically remove
while still being alive.

What type(s) of donors may donate a kidney? - answer Living donors usually donate
kidneys, because they are more healthier than the ones from a dead body.

Describe the function of the kidney. - answer "The kidneys are two bean-shaped
organs in the renal system. They help the body pass waste as urine. They also help
filter blood before sending it back to the heart."

What is a nephron and what does it produce? - answer "Nephrons are the most
important part of each kidney. They take in blood, metabolize nutrients, and help pass
out waste products from filtered blood. Each kidney has about 1 million nephrons. Each
has its own internal set of structures."

What is glomerular filtration rate (GFR)? - answer "GFR stands for glomerular (glow-
MAIR-you-lure) filtration rate. A blood test checks your GFR, which tells how well your
kidneys are filtering."

? What does a low GFR indicate? - answer A low GFR indicates that your kidneys
aren't working/functioning properly and that you may have a kidney disease.

Describe at least 6 symptoms of end-stage kidney disease, otherwise known as end-
stage renal disease (ESRD). - answer
Hemorrhage,Fever,Weakness,Fatigue,Rash,Diarrhea or bloody diarrhea are symptoms
of ESRD.

How is ESRD diagnosed? - answer ESRD is diagnose by acute and chronic renal
failure. Acute renal failure can possibly be reverse but may cause symptom for a short
period of time. Chronic renal failure is progressive over a span of months leading into
permanent renal failure.
