exercise echocardiography: All patients will undergo exercise echocardiography during a symptom-limited cardiopulmonary exercise test.

Study summary

The aim of the study is to investigate pulmonary hemodynamics at rest and during exercise in patients before and after kidney transplantation.

Inclusion Criteria: * Age: ≥ 18 years * patients listed for first kidney transplantation at the Clinical Division of Nephrology Exclusion Criteria: * Age \< 18 years * combined organ transplantations (heart-kidney, pancreas-kidney etc.) * patients with prior kidney transplantation * high calcium score on cardiac-CT (\> 160 Agatston Score)

Primary outcome measure(s)

  • Change in the systolic pulmonary arterial pressure/cardiac output (SPAP/CO) slope — Baseline and 1 year after kidney transplantation
    Change in the systolic pulmonary arterial pressure/cardiac output (SPAP/CO) slope (calculated as the difference of maximal and resting SPAP divided by the difference of maximal and resting CO) before versus one year after kidney transplantation assessed by exercise echocardiography
