Effect of match-run frequencies on the number of transplants and waiting times in kidney exchange.
Many U.S. kidney paired donation (KPD) registries have gradually shifted to high-frequency match-runs, raising the question of whether this harms the number of transplants. The authors conducted simulations and found that longer intervals between match-runs do not increase the total number of transplants, and that prioritizing highly sensitized patients is more effective than waiting longer between match-runs for transplanting these patients. Further, increasing arrival rates of new pairs improves both the fraction of transplanted pairs and waiting times.
