ABSTRACT
The number of kidney transplant recipients have grown incrementally over the years. These patients have a high comorbidity index and require special attention to immunosuppression management. In addition, this population has an increased risk for cardiovascular events, electrolyte abnormalities, allograft dysfunction and infectious complications. . It is vital for hospitalists and internists to understand the risks and nuances in the care of this increasingly prevalent but also high-risk population.
