Transplantation
November 2002
Scientific Registry of Transplant Recipients, University Renal Research and Education Association (URREA), Ann Arbor, MI 48103, USA.
Background: Availability of cadaveric kidneys for transplantation is far below the growing need, leading to longer waiting time and more deaths while waiting.
Methods: Using national data from 1995 to 2000, we evaluated graft survival by donor characteristics and the rate of discard of retrieved organs, with the goal of increasing use of kidneys that are associated with increased risk of graft failure, that is, expanded donor kidneys.
Results: Cox models identified four donor factors that independently predicted significantly higher relative risk of graft loss compared with a low-risk group.
