摘要

背景:虽然高达59%的美国人表示愿意捐献肾脏,但每年只有大约6000例活体肾脏捐赠。本研究描述了国家肾脏登记(NKR)计划的使用和影响,该计划旨在消除对活体肾脏捐赠的阻碍。方法:这是一项回顾性队列分析,利用NKR的管理数据记录,NKR是一个国家数据库,收集了美国大陆103个移植中心的潜在活体肾脏捐赠者的信息。描述性统计用于总结捐赠者特征、项目参与和结果测量。使用中断时间序列来分析程序实施前后注册转化率的变化。结果:供体连接实施后,注册转化率从实施前的8.4%上升到随访结束时的18.4%。在干预时,观察到登记转换率有统计学意义上的8%的增加(距受体移植中心150英里)(84%对21%);远程捐赠计划减少了597[205,1196]英里的旅行负担。与居住在51-150英里(6.5%)和150英里(5.3%)范围内的捐赠者相比,居住在50英里范围内的捐赠者转送转化率(8.3%)显著更高。结论:该分析表明,NKR项目的结果支持了以抑制激励为目标的创新的有效性,通过支持捐赠者和简化捐赠流程来提高捐赠率。这些创新代表了一种现代的、以捐赠者为中心的活体肾脏捐赠方法。通过解决已知的障碍,这些项目有可能扩大捐助者库,提高捐助者评估的效率,并改善捐助者的整体体验。

Strategic Innovations to Reduce Disincentives and Increase Living Kidney Donation.

Background: While up to 59% of the U.S. population report willingness to donate a kidney, only about 6,000 living kidney donations occur annually. This study described the use and impact of National Kidney Registry (NKR) programs designed to eliminate disincentives to living kidney donation.

Methods: This was a retrospective cohort analysis utilizing administrative data records from the NKR, a national database capturing information on potential living kidney donors at 103 transplant centers across the continental US. Descriptive statistics were used to summarize donor characteristics, program participation, and outcome measures. An interrupted time series was used to analyze changes in registration conversion rates before and after program implementation.

Results: Following the implementation of Donor Connect, the registration conversion rate increased from 8.4% immediately preceding implementation to 18.4% by the end of follow-up. At the time of intervention, a statistically significant 8% increase in registration conversion rate was observed (p<0.001), with an additional 0.3% increase per quarter thereafter (p=0.017). Remote donors were significantly more likely to live > 150 miles from the recipient's transplant center (84% vs 21%); the Remote Donor Program reduced travel burden by 597 [205,1196] miles. Referral conversion rates were significantly higher for donors living within 50 miles (8.3%) compared to those 51-150 miles (6.5%, p<0.001) and >150 miles (5.3%, p<0.003), corresponding to an increased donation odds of 1.31 and 1.62, respectively). Fifty-one percent of donors received cost reimbursement through the Donor Shield program. Donors who participated were more racially diverse and were more likely to reside further from the transplant center.

Conclusions: This analysis indicates that the outcomes from NKR's programs support the efficacy of disincentive-targeted innovations as a way to increase donation rates by supporting donors and streamlining the donation process. These innovations represent a modern, donor-centered approach to living kidney donation. By addressing known barriers, these programs have the potential to expand the donor pool, improve the efficiency in donor evaluation, and improve the overall donor experience.
