Presentation Transcript

  1. Practical Protocols – experience and evidence based routines Henrik Ekberg

  2. Living Donor Kidney Transplantation - Protocols Why do we need protocols? • Every transplant centre needs to make decisions on their routine practice. • The reason for this is that all patients should be given the best possible care. • These protocols should be based on current transplantation research • They should be updated at regular intervals. • The objective is to reach the highest international standard of outcome after kidney transplantation.

  3. How to make your own protocols • The book is published in Chinese and in English. • With the book you should find a CD. • If you want to make a print out of the same text as in the book, use the pdf file. • If you want to make your own protocols, similar to what we have suggested but with an update or with local application, use the Word file.

  4. A message from The Transplantation Society Professor Jeremy Chapman, President, TTS 2008-2010. • “This book provides the practical elements needed for a modern transplantation programme. • It is absolutely essential in today’s clinical transplant programmes that all the professional staff work as a unit. • Without protocols covering the most important aspects of transplant care there is no cohesion or collaboration. • These Practical Protocols provide all transplant units the opportunity to build their own protocols easily and on a sound basis of international best practice. “
