Kidney transplantation is a surgical procedure in which a healthy kidney from a donor is transplanted into a person with kidney failure. The transplanted kidney takes over the function of the person's own kidneys, which are either not functioning properly or have been removed. The procedure is typically done in a hospital setting and requires a team of medical professionals, including surgeons, nephrologists, and anesthesiologists. After the transplant, the patient will need to take medications to prevent rejection of the transplanted kidney. The success of the transplant depends on the compatibility of the donor and recipient.
Kidney donation is the process of donating one of your kidneys to a person in need of a kidney transplant. Kidney donation can be done either through a living donor or a deceased donor. Living donors are typically family members, friends, or acquaintances of the recipient, while deceased donors are individuals who have passed away and whose organs are donated for transplantation. The process of kidney donation involves extensive medical and psychological evaluation of the donor, as well as the recipient, to ensure that the transplant is sucessful.
