Patient care after heart and kidney transplantation – case report
Journal Title: Annals of Agricultural and Environmental Medicine - Year 2014, Vol 8, Issue 1
Abstract
A patient after vascularized organ transplantation requires especially attentive medical care because of the risk of rejection of the transplant, the necessity for monitoring immunosuppressive therapy, and increased susceptibility to infection during this treatment. Due to the progress in transplantation medicine the number of patients after organ transplantation (heart, kidneys, liver, lungs) increases every year, and becomes a great challenge for medical specialists, and increasingly more often for specialists in family medicine. It is important that physicians should be adequately prepared to cover this group of patients with care.
