ECU IM Chiefs ‏(@ecuimchiefs)
@nephondemand are u saying that 8/10 renal transplants don't take??

Nephrology On-Demand ‏(@nephondemand)
@ecuimchiefs 8 of 10 transplants will fail because of errors/problems in transition of care into adulthood.

Damian Fogarty ‏(@DamianFog)
@nephondemand @ecuimchiefs Can we give reference to the high failure rate of transplants around adolescence 8 of 10 seems high.
