NCT03322709

Brief Summary

This study aims to investigate the effect of robot-assisted laparoscopic kidney transplantation on kidney injury by measuring biomarkers of kidney injury which are found in blood and urine to establish if there is a significant difference between robotic and open surgery. The study will also investigate the potential benefits of minimally invasive surgery on the surgical trauma associated with open surgery by assessing the surgical stress response between groups of kidney transplant patients receiving either open or minimally invasive kidney transplants and by comparing wound healing with patients undergoing donor nephrectomy.

Conditions

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Expression of biomarkers of kidney injury

    KIM-1, NGAL and Interleukin 18 will be measured pre-op and post operatively up to day 30.

    30 days post op

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • Wound healing

    3 time points post op up to 14 days.

Study Arms (3)

Robotic-assisted kidney transplant

Adult patients undergoing robotic kidney transplantation. The transplant operation will be undertaken using the da Vinci systems robot in minimally invasive fashion.

Procedure: kidney transplant

Open kidney transplant

Adult patients undergoing kidney transplantation via an open approach.

Procedure: kidney transplant

Donor nephrectomy

Adult patients undergoing donor nephrectomy will have a scan of their abdominal wound to compare wound healing.

Interventions

Transplantation of a kidney either by open surgery or robotic assisted laparoscopic surgery.
