DOI: 10.1097/xcs.0000000000001349
Abstract: BACKGROUND In July 2022, the Organ Procurement Transplant Network (OPTN) mandated race-neutral eGFR calculations when evaluating kidney transplant (KT) candidates, replacing historic race-based estimates. This modification also required transplant programs to identify KT candidates on… read more here.
