In episode five, we begin a series of 30,000-foot overviews of the major topic areas in kidney care. We're calling these "the state of" episodes, and this week we focus on transplantation. In an information-packed discussion with Dr. Anil Paramesh, surgical director at Tulane University, we cover where we've been, where we are, and where are headed. Dr. Paramesh highlights how regulatory practices shape practice, the real-world impact of removing race from the eGFR equation, and a frank discussion of America's high "non-use" or kidney "discard" rate. Ending on a hopeful note, we chat about how to improve living donation and innovations headed toward human trials. Catch up with the current and future states of kidney transplant in our first extended episode.
