            • Definitions

              • DGF lacks standardized definition
                • Most common: Need for dialysis in 1st week after transplantation
                  • Or failure of serum creatinine to halve within 1st week after transplantation
                  • Or failure of serum creatinine to decrease by 10% on 3 consecutive days within 1st week after transplantation
