| Core Tip |
This narrative review compares propofol-based total intravenous anaesthesia (TIVA) with volatile anaesthesia in adult kidney transplantation. Across six comparable studies, TIVA delivers haemodynamic stability and graft function equivalent to volatile maintenance, with reproducible advantages in extubation time and postoperative nausea and vomiting—the latter clinically important for reliable early enteral absorption of immunosuppressants. The biomarker signal of reduced tubular stress under propofol from the VAPOR-1 trial has not translated into measurable clinical benefit in low-risk living-donor cohorts. The next critical step is an adequately powered multicentre randomised trial in extended-criteria-donor and donation-after-circulatory-death recipients, with standardised opioid, fluid, and vasopressor protocols. |
