Dexmedetomidine and Renal Transplants

Dexmedetomidine and Renal Transplants

Investigators aim to retrospectively research patients undergoing renal transplants that received dexmedetomidine perioperatively to see if dexmedetomidine use protects renal function. Investigators hope to elucidate any association between renal transplant patients and perioperative dexmedetomidine administration, these include (but are not limited to) UOP, Cr/GFR, morbidity, mortality, in hospital complications and failure rate. Investigators will research both living and cadaveric renal transplants.

Inclusion Criteria: Patients greater than or equal to 18 years old that underwent renal transplant at UC Davis Medical Center -

Exclusion Criteria: Patients that did not undergo renal transplants and patients less than 18 years old will be excluded from the study.
