About this trial
Renal transplantation is now recognized as the treatment of choice for patients with end-stage renal disease. An optimum anesthetic regimen should enhance the function and perfusion of the transplanted kidney. The aim of this study is to assess \& compare the effectiveness of 3 different modalities in this respect: Mannitol, Dopamine and adequate hydration.
