Global data mapping and evaluation of needs, capacities and benchmarks in organ donation and transplantation: informing effective local and international health policy to better meet the needs of patients

点击翻译按钮获取中文摘要

Global shortages of donor organs limit the provision of reliable and equitable access to solid organ transplantation. As a result, many are excluded from waiting lists, others deteriorate whilst awaiting transplantation, and some seek to purchase the needed organ. Countries have a responsibility to provide transplantation services sufficient to meet population need. This project evaluates international data for key interventions that may impact on waitlisting, donation and transplant practices.
