New Webcast on Kidney-Paired Donation

Use your AST user login information to watch a free 30-minute webcast summarizing outcomes from the Kidney Paired Donation Consensus Conference held in March. Click here and log in on the left hand side of the page (disregard the $25 price displayed on the right hand side of the page, this is for non-members).

This webcast includes information on:

  • Alternative KPD allocation systems currently in use
  • Discussion of challenges unique to KPD in terms of donor evaluation, geography, financing, histocompatibility, and implementation
  • Future directions for KPD allocation

The primary objective of the consensus conference was to identify and recommend best practices related to living kidney donor education and evaluation processes, communication processes, attenuation of participation barriers, and donor follow-up care in the multi-center KPD setting.
