Publications that relate characteristics of donors to renal function of recipients are reviewed. Most publications report retrospective observations that relate outcomes to donor variables that cannot be altered during donor care. Factors that can be altered in adult donors in an effort to improve recipients' outcomes include urine output and creatinine level. Increasing urine output to more than 100 mL/h, at least during the hour before explantation, and returning the creatinine level to match its serum concentration when the patient was admitted can improve outcomes. Ways of accomplishing those goals during donor care are discussed, with emphasis on support of renal blood flow.
