Kidney Transplant Recipient Follow Up 6 Month -5 Year (TRF)

Kidney Transplant Recipient Follow-up (TRF) Field Descriptions

Transplant Recipient Follow-up (TRF) records are generated in Tiedi^® at six months, one year and annually thereafter following transplantation, until either graft failure, recipient death or lost to follow-up is reported. Forms are generated by the age at transplant, not the age at listing. Pediatric follow-up records will continue to generate through the recipient's 25th birthday. The system will automatically update the next follow-up record to Adult as of the recipient's 26th birthday.

The TRF record is to be completed by the transplant center responsible for follow-up of the recipient at intervals of six months, one year and annually thereafter. The record is to contain only the applicable patient information since the last follow-up period. It is not to contain information pertaining solely to the previous or next follow-up period. For example: the 6-month follow-up should contain information from the time after the TRR was completed to the 6-month transplant anniversary date; the 1-year follow-up should contain information from the day after the 6-month transplant anniversary date to the 1-year transplant anniversary date; the 2-year follow-up should contain information from the day after the 1-year transplant anniversary date to the 2-year anniversary date.

If the recipient dies or experiences a graft failure between follow-up intervals, complete an interim record containing the information pertinent to death or graft failure. For example: an interim graft failure is reported with a graft failure date of March 10. The patient status date should also be March 10 and the information collected on the form should be based on patient evaluation no later than March 10. 

If the patient is lost to follow-up, follow the steps for Reporting Lost to Follow-up.

The TRF record must be completed within 90 days from the record generation date. See OPTN Policies for additional information. Use the search feature to locate specific policy information on Data Submission Requirements.

Tx Date: The recipient's transplant date, reported in the Recipient Feedback, will display. Verify that the displayed transplant date is correct. The transplant date is determined by the start of the organ anastomosis during transplant or the start of the islet infusion. Organ transplants include solid organ transplants and islet infusions. An organ transplant procedure is complete when any of the following occurs:

The chest or abdominal cavity is closed and the final skin stitch or staple is applied.

The transplant recipient leaves the operating room, even if the chest or abdominal cavity cannot be closed.

The islet infusion is complete.

Definitions of Immunosuppressive Follow-up Medications

For each of the immunosuppressant medications listed, check Previous Maintenance (Prev Maint), Current Maintenance (Curr Maint) or Anti-rejection (AR) to indicate all medications that were prescribed for the recipient during this follow-up period, and for what reason. If a medication was not given, leave the associated box(es) blank.  

Previous Maintenance (Prev Maint) includes all immunosuppressive medications given during the report period, which covers the period from the last clinic visit to the current clinic visit, with the intention to maintain them long-term (example: prednisone, cyclosporine, tacrolimus, mycophenolate mofetil, azathioprine, or Rapamune). This does not include any immunosuppressive medications given to treat rejection episodes.  

Current Maintenance (Curr Maint) includes all immunosuppressive medications given at the time of the current clinic visit to begin in the next report period, with the intention to maintain them long-term (example: prednisone, cyclosporine, tacrolimus, mycophenolate mofetil, azathioprine, or Rapamune). This does not include any immunosuppressive medications given to treat rejection episodes.  

Anti-rejection (AR) immunosuppression includes all immunosuppressive medications given for the purpose of treating an acute rejection episode since the last clinic visit (example: methylprednisolone or Thymoglobulin). When switching maintenance drugs (example: from tacrolimus to cyclosporine; or from mycophenolate mofetil to azathioprine) because of rejection, the drugs should not be listed under AR immunosuppression, but should be listed under maintenance immunosuppression. Note: The Anti-rejection field refers to any anti-rejection medications since the last clinic visit, not just at the time of the current clinic visit.  

If an immunosuppressive medication other than those listed is being administered (e.g., new monoclonal antibodies), select Previous Maint, or Current Maint, or AR next to Other Immunosuppressive Medication field, and enter the full name of the medication in the space provided. Note: Do not list non-immunosuppressive medications.
