What the trial is, and whether it could suit you

Kidney transplantation is the treatment of choice for end-stage chronic kidney disease. Kidney transplantation is at the first rank of solid organ transplantation in France, with 3,376 grafts performed in 2022. Immunosuppressive therapy, required to prevent graft rejection, exposes graft recipients to complications related to decreased immunity, including opportunistic infections and neoplastic complications. After the earlt post-transplantation period, up to 10% of kidney transplant recipients will require admission to the intensive care unit (ICU). The main reasons for admission are septic shock and acute hypoxemic respiratory failure. ICU stay has a significant impact on these patients with a mortality rate reaching 40%, that remains increased even after ICU discharge. Furthermore, an impact on graft function has been demonstrated, with deterioration of graft function in 1/3 of patie
