Abstract
|
|
|
Background: The kidney transplantation is increasing. The kidney donation of a living donor is more common in Korea than in other countries. Underwriters may encounter a case of a kidney donor. So we need to determine medical risk for a living kidney donor.
Methods: Comparative mortality figures were calculated from a source article using mortality analysis methods.
Results: Mortality Ratio of a living kidney donor was estimated to 106%, and Excess Death Rate was 0.89 per 1000.
Discussion: A healthy kidney donor is quite within standard, even better in terms of medical risk.
