Many potential kidney transplant recipients are unable to receive a live donor transplant due
to crossmatch or blood type incompatibility. Kidney paired donation increases access to live …

Efforts to expand kidney paired donation have included matching nondirected donors
(NDDs) to incompatible pairs. In domino paired donation (DPD), an NDD gives to the …
