Philipse E, et al. – Researchers intended to figure out whether the implementation of the Kidney Donor Risk Index (KDRI) in the decision–making process to accept or decline an offered deceased donor kidney, increased the acceptance rate. According to the results, the transplantation rate increased by 26%, via implementing the KDRI in the decision–making process. When considering whether to accept or decline a deceased donor kidney offer, the KDRI could be a supportive tool.
