The post-transplant phase is the period of care following an organ transplant, during which the recipient is closely monitored to ensure the transplanted organ functions and is not rejected by the immune system. It is a critical stage of transplantation: patients receive immunosuppressive therapy to suppress the immune response enough to protect the graft while avoiding the complications of over-suppression, such as infection. Clinicians watch for signs of acute and chronic rejection, delayed graft function, surgical and vascular complications, and drug-related effects, adjusting treatment over time as the recipient stabilises. The peer-reviewed research collected here addresses several aspects of this post-transplant care. A study compares Doppler ultrasonography with biopsy for evaluating post-transplant complications and kidney function, illustrating the diagnostic monitoring central to this phase. Other work examines delayed graft function and the influence of intra-operative haemodynamics in living kidney transplant, and single-nucleotide polymorphism profiling in patients with acute renal rejection to help personalise immunosuppressive therapy. Further articles report post-transplant complications such as constrictive pericarditis after heart transplantation and dermatologic findings in a renal transplant recipient. Together these open-access articles span the monitoring, immunosuppression, rejection, and complications that define the post-transplant phase across Organ Transplantation.
