paired donation
Paired donation is a process used in organ transplantation that helps people find compatible organ donors when their family or friends cannot donate directly. In this system, two or more pairs of donors and recipients are matched. For example, if Person A needs a kidney but cannot receive one from their friend Person B, a matching donor from another pair can help. Essentially, Person B donates their kidney to the second recipient, while Person A receives a kidney from the second donor. This approach increases the chances of successful transplants and helps more people receive the organs they need.
