Current Limitationso High kidney discard rates o Variability in access to transplanto Unrealized graft yearso Unnecessarily high re-transplant rates
Why change kidney allocation?
![Page 5: The OPTN presents: The New Kidney Allocation System: What Referring Physicians Need to Know](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022051821/568163e6550346895dd549a3/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Approximately 8,000 additional life years gained annually
Improved access for:o highly sensitized candidateso ethnic minority candidates
Comparable levels of kidney transplants at regional/national levels
Predicted outcomes of the change

Major allocation components
Replace SCD/ECD with KDPI Incorporate A2/A2B to B
Add longevity matching Base pediatric priority on KDPI
Increase priority for sensitized candidates/CPRA sliding scale
Remove payback system
Include pre-registration dialysis time Remove variances

Implementation
Phase I Phase II• Data updates required• New reports released• Calculators made available
• New allocation rules applied • Variances turned off• Payback system turned off
Anticipated mid 2014 Anticipated end 2014

Importance of early referral
Pre-emptive listing
Accrue Waiting Time with GFR

Sensitized candidates

Identify issues that may complicate
/prevent transplantWaiting time accumulates
while issues are addressedSlowly progressive
renal diseases could receive pre-emptive transplant

Revised waiting time calculation
Current
New
Reminder
Waiting time begins at/after registration with GFR <=20 ml/min OR On Dialysis
Waiting time points awarded for dialysis prior to registration (pediatric and adults)• Recognizes time spent with ESRD as
basis for priority
Waiting time points based on GFR remains the same

There is no established system to ensure that medically appropriate candidates are referred for transplantation
Early referral
![Page 16: The OPTN presents: The New Kidney Allocation System: What Referring Physicians Need to Know](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022051821/568163e6550346895dd549a3/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Patients with chronic kidney disease (Stage 3 or higher) or ESRD should be referred for transplant evaluation
Guidance on early referral
![Page 17: The OPTN presents: The New Kidney Allocation System: What Referring Physicians Need to Know](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022051821/568163e6550346895dd549a3/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Pre-emptive transplant and timely, early referral is the goalo GFR range = 25-30
Education about transplant must begin before ESRD to be most effectiveo Stage 3-4 CKD
Begin discussing the importance of living donors Initiate weight loss and smoking cessation
counseling as necessary
