Viral Infections in Post-Renal Transplant Patients
This project aims to assess the incidence and prevalence of viral infections in post-renal transplant patients and develop guidelines for managing and preventing these infections. Viral infections are a leading cause of graft failure in transplant patients, and early diagnosis is critical to protecting the transplant and improving patient survival. The project includes evaluations of infections from BK Polyomavirus, Cytomegalovirus (CMV), Epstein-Barr Virus (EBV), and other significant viruses.

Objectives
Objectives of the project
- Assess the incidence and prevalence of viral infections in post-renal transplant patients.
- Monitor viral infections and manage immunosuppressive therapy to minimize infection risk while preserving renal graft function.
- Develop guidelines for the prevention of viral infections in post-transplant patients to protect the graft and reduce mortality risk.
Results
Expected Results and Outcomes
- Creation of a database on the incidence and prevalence of viral infections in renal transplant patients.
- Development of guidelines for managing infections and improving post-transplant patient follow-up protocols.
- Improved patient care protocols and reduced risk of graft failure due to viral infections.
