摘要
Before 1999, deceased donor kidneys in New Zealand were allocated by local nephrologists on the basis of local needs and factors thought to be beneficial to graft outcome - in particular, matching tissue type. Waiting times were much longer for patients whose tissue type was different from that of our mainly white population of deceased donors. A National Kidney Allocation System was developed that improved equity of access for our unique population base in New Zealand, taking into account not only tissue-type matching but time spent waiting.
