Abstract

Purpose of review: The purpose of this review is to describe the Southeastern Kidney Transplant Coalition's mission, vision, goals, and Early Transplant Access registry as an example of a community/academic collaboration dedicated to improving access to transplantation and reducing inequities in transplant access.

Recent findings: The barriers and facilitators to referral and evaluation for kidney transplantation are not necessarily the same as for waitlisting and transplantation. Recent findings suggest that inequities in transplant access are multilevel and multifactorial and require continued community engagement to improve access to kidney transplantation across patients, health systems, and populations.

Summary: Community-engaged approaches are critical to ensuring that inequities in transplant access - which may vary across regions -- are not only described but are addressed in practice in a sustainable manner.

社区参与从基层开始改善肾移植的公平性:东南肾移植联盟。

综述的目的:本综述的目的是描述东南肾移植联盟的使命、愿景、目标和早期移植准入注册，作为一个社区/学术合作的例子，致力于改善移植的可及性和减少移植可及性的不公平。近期研究发现:肾移植的转诊和评估障碍和促进因素与等待和移植并不一定相同。最近的研究结果表明，移植可及性方面的不平等是多层次和多因素的，需要持续的社区参与，以改善患者、卫生系统和人群的肾移植可及性。摘要:社区参与的方法对于确保不仅描述而且在实践中以可持续的方式解决移植获取方面的不公平现象至关重要，这种不公平现象可能因地区而异。
