Regional sharing of organs
Pros Cons- equalize transplant - longer cold time MELD and death rate - more distance
traveled- more equitable organ - worse outcomes? allocation - local donation impact - doesn’t “go far
enough” - small center impact

Liver redistricting – new proposal
• “if some is good, more is better”• wider regional sharing in the US• fulfills “Final Rule” – access to donors not
limited by geographys• normalizes access/waitlist mortality• supported by: NYC, BOS, SFO, LAX

Liver redistricting - concerns
• long-travel times (logistics/cost)• penalizes good DSA’s, rewards laggards• effects of share-35 not fully assessed• worsen outcomes• not supported by: organ-rich, low-MELD
regions: MO, KS, SC, TN, TX

Liver redistricting - proposal
110/12,000 = 0.9 % lives saved per year
58 DSA’s in US x 2 livers per year = 116 lives saved

Background – Share 35 allocation
• designed to "decrease wait list deaths and minimize distance traveled" of donor organs
• its impact has not been reported
• outcomes of liver transplant candidates and recipients before/after "Share 35" policy in the UNOS Region 4 (Oklahoma and Texas)

Summary – “Share 35 allocation”
Although 19 % more livers were procured,
there was no change in the percentage of
patients removed from the list for
death or too sick to transplant.
![Page 53: MELD and UNOS James Trotter, MD Baylor University Medical Center Dallas, Texas.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062314/56649ebd5503460f94bc7174/html5/thumbnails/53.jpg)
Summary – “Share 35 allocation”
Despite predictions that “Share 35” would improve patient outcomes the opposite is true in UNOS Region 4.
Consider these findings as proposals for evenlarger regional sharing policies are under review.
