    Moreover, the demand for organs constantly outstrips the supply (1), highlighting the need to focus on the donation end of the process, and the need to gain the support and trust of the public(2). It also underlines the need for investment in public health and primary care programmes which have the potential to reduce the risk of organ failure and therefore reduce the need for…

    Conceptual frameworks are valuable resources that can be used to guide the planning, evaluation, and development of healthcare services. However, there are currently no comprehensive frameworks focused on organ donation and transplantation that identify the critical factors underlying a successful national program. To address this knowledge gap, we developed a conceptual framework that takes into…

    Over the past two decades, Portugal has become one of the world leaders in organ donation and transplantation despite significant financial constraints. This study highlights how Portugal achieved success in organ donation and transplantation and discusses how this information might be used by other countries that are seeking to reform their national programs. To accomplish this goal, we…

    Valuable information can be obtained from a systematic evaluation of a successful national transplant program. This paper provides an overview of Italyโ€™s solid organ transplantation program which is coordinated by the National Transplant Network (Rete Nazionale Trapianti) and The National Transplant Center (Centro Nazionale Trapianti). The analysis is based on a system-level conceptual framework…

    The United Kingdom (UK) supports a highly successful organ donation and transplantation program. While the UK originally had one of the lowest organ donation rates in Europe, sustained reforms have resulted in steady improvement. Of note, the UK nearly doubled its rate of deceased donations between 2008 and 2018. In this report, we present a case study of the UK organ donation and transplantation…

    Greece has fallen far behind many comparable European countries in the field of organ donation and transplantation and has made little progress over the past decade. Despite efforts to improve its organ donation and transplantation program, systemic problems persist. In 2019, the Onassis Foundation commissioned a report to be prepared by the London School of Economics and Political Science that…

    Computerized integration of alternative transplantation programs (CIAT) is a kidney-exchange program that allows AB0- and/or HLA-incompatible allocation to difficult-to-match patients, thereby increasing their chances. Altruistic donors make this available for waiting list patients as well. Strict criteria were defined for selected highly-immunized (sHI) and long waiting (LW) candidates. For LW…
