Deceased Donor Organ Allocation

Deceased donor organ allocation is the process used to fairly distribute organs from people who have recently died and donated their organs for transplantation. It considers factors like blood type, tissue compatibility, medical urgency, and waiting time to ensure organs go to recipients who need them most and are the best match. The goal is to maximize the success of the transplant and save lives, while ensuring an equitable and transparent system. This process is managed by national or regional agencies that coordinate organ sharing across hospitals.
