Study Details
Improving Care for Children Who Have Kidney Transplants Due to Kidney Disease
(IRB#: IRB_00138538)
Kidney disease is when blood in the body is not filtered creating extra fluid that can cause serious health issues such as heart disease or stroke. The study wants to see how to improve care for children who have kidney transplants (a surgery that removes an unhealthy kidney and replaces it with a healthy kidney). Improving Renal Outcomes Collaborative is a network of patients, families, caregivers, and researchers that provide data to find better ways to care for children with kidney transplants. Participants in the study will share health data to be collected into a secure database to develop new methods that improve care for children with kidney transplants.
