Description

This book analyses the impact of organ transplantation.

It also presents new, original analyses of data, and assesses medical practices, social and economic observations, and other information on: access to transplantation services for low-income populations and racial and ethnic minority groups; organ donation rates; waiting times for transplantation; patient survival rates and organ failure rates leading to retransplantation; and cost of organ transplantation services.

It includes chapters on the possibilities of expanding the pool of available cadaver organs.

It also analyzes the results of transplantation of cadaver organs from older donors and marginal, non-heart beating donors.

Transplantation policies based on the offering of organs by living donors are also described, as is the impact of delayed graft function on organ allocation.
