Sumario:This research was intended to describe the characteristics of renal transplant patients with delayed graft function. Descriptive, transversal and observational study. Population: assisted renal transplants at the Institute of Current Cardiology between 2016 and 2018 that met the inclusion criteria. Own form was used; the data were obtained from review of medical record.The information collected was scanned by computer Epidat_4.2. The institution's committee was endorsed. 61 transplantedpatients were studied; 43% belonged to living donors and 57% to cadaveric. 66% of cadaveric donors had delayed graft function, those from living donors did not present it. In terms of sex 48% of  males had delayed function; women was 28%. In age of patients, the average was 40.6 years x 15.7; the increased frequency of function delays was observed in the age group of 31 to 50 years with 44%. As for nutritional status 17% who were overweight and 48% underweight were delayed graft function. Depending on the years on pre-transplant dialysis, 65% of those with 4 to 7 years of dialysis had delayed graft function. According to cold ischemia time of the transplanted organ, 52% had delayed graft function when the time was greater than 15 hours. At the request of postoperative dialysis, 66% had delayed graft function and belonged to cadaveric donors. In renal vascular resistance index in the first 24 hours, 65% with delay of graft function had pathological index. In conclusion, male sex, age group of 31 to 50 years, having altered nutritional status, having dialed pre transplant between 4 to 7 years, suffering a prolonged time of cold ischemia > 15 hours and present a pathological renal vascular resistance index, are present characteristics; renal transplants with delayed graft function; and need to be taken into account when planning these surgeries.
