title: Significance of immediate diuresis in relation to transplant kidney survival rate.
abstract: Transplant kidney survival of recipients with immediate diuresis (n = 19) is compared with recipients who did not have a significant post-operative diuresis (n = 53). There is statistically no significant difference between patients without significant early diuresis (survival rate 71%) and patients with immediate diuresis (survival rate 68%, p greater than 0.1). The renal function was not different in the survivors of the two groups at 12 months post-transplant as measured by creatinine clearance (p greater than 0.35).
