Safety and Effect of Low-Energy Extracorporeal Shockwave Therapy (ESWT) on the Renal Allograft in Transplant Recipients - a Pilot Study.
Safety and Effect of Low-Energy Extracorporeal Shockwave Therapy (ESWT) on the Renal Allograft in Transplant Recipients - a Pilot Study.
The aim is to investigate the safety and potential effect of Low-energy Shockwave Therapy (ESWT) on the transplanted kidney. The treatment consist of ESWT two times a week for three weeks, six treatments in total.
The hypothesis is that ESWT with improve the renal function, by reducing proteinuria (in a 24-hour urine collection test) and improving renal clearance of 51Cr-EDTA.
The safety of ESWT on the renal allograft will be assessed during and after treatments.
