초록[abstracts]
[Background: This study was conducted to analyze the current system for allocation of deceased donor kidney transplantation in Korea, which includes an incentive regulation for candidates registered at the Hospital-based Organ Procurement Organization (HOPO). Methods: Between January 2011 and November 2016, there were 2,655 deceased donors in Korea. During the same period, there were 21,247 current candidates and recipients of kidney, pancreas and simultaneous pancreas-kidney transplants. We analyzed data from all of these donors, candidates, and recipients. Results: Mean waiting times for organ allocation of each priority differed significantly (2nd priority group, 1,701±974 days; 3rd priority group, 1,316±927 days; 4th priority group, 2,077±1,207 days). Additionally, HOPO candidates/deceased donor ratios were very different from each other (maximum, 49; minimum, 0.6). The number of deceased donors in region 1, 2, and 3 were 1,623, 429, and 603, respectively, while the number of transplantations in each region was 3,095, 597, and 1,165, respectively. The candidates registered at region 1 HOPO moved the longest distances on average for transplantation, and this value differed significantly different from that of other regions (56.18±91.9 km vs. 24.66±28.0 km vs. 26.20±37.3 km, P<0.05). Conclusions: The incentive system of current allocation system for deceased donor kidney in Korea does not coincide with the purpose of the `Declaration of Istanbul` and unnecessary social costs have occurred. Therefore, we should make an effort to change our current allocation system to the geographic sequence of organ allocation system.]
