A scoring system to screen elderly potential kidney transplant recipients: a simple tool for a complex task.

Scott B Campbell1, Philip A Clayton2.   

Abstract

Despite the rapid growth in the number of dialysis patients ⩾65, relatively few of these patients are receiving transplants. Dusseux et al. present a simple scoring system that helps to identify a group of such patients with a higher survival rate on dialysis. They suggest that such a screening tool might help to identify older patients for more comprehensive transplant assessment.
