There are no prior studies assessing the risk factors and outcomes for kidney delayed graft function (K-DGF) in simultaneous heart and kidney (SHK) transplant recipients. Using the OPTN/UNOS database, we sought to identify risk factors associated with the development of K-DGF in this unique population, as well as outcomes associated with K-DGF. A total of 1161 SHK transplanted between 1998 and 2018 were included in the analysis, of which 311 (27%) were in the K-DGF (+) group and 850 in the K-DGF (-) group. In the multivariable analysis, history of pretransplant dialysis (OR: 3.95; 95% CI: 2.94 to 5.29; p < .001) was significantly associated with the development of K-DGF, as was donor death from cerebrovascular accident and longer cold ischemia time of either organ. SHK recipients with K-DGF had increased mortality (HR: 1.99; 95% CI: 1.52 to 2.60; p < .001) and death censored kidney graft failure (HR: 3.51; 95% CI: 2.29 to 5.36; p < .001) in the multivariable analysis. Similar outcomes were obtained when limiting our study to 2008-2018. Similar to kidney-only recipients, K-DGF in SHK recipients is associated with worse outcomes. Careful matching of recipients and donors, as well as peri-operative management, may help reduce the risk of K-DGF and the associated detrimental effects.
