2 About the Conference Organ transplantation is the optimal therapy for appropriate patients with end-stage organ diseases. Although many of the surgical procedures have become mainstream, the increasing demand for donor organs has compelled the transplant community to develop creative strategies to approach this. Such strategies to meet the ever growing disparity between the supply and demand for donor organs are unconventional, controversial and yet highly innovative. These include: 1. Utilization of donors that would have traditionally been discarded due to donor age/co-morbidities, high risk potentially transmissible diseases, complex anatomy or prolonged ischemic time. 2. Optimal allocation of living and deceased donors to maximize use in the greatest number of recipients. This includes complex schemes to trade organs amongst living patients and a new allocation system for kidneys that hopes to improve access for highly sensitized candidates and match qualities between donor and recipient that will expand the life-years saved with transplantation. 3. Improving transplant recipient management to maximize patient and graft survival after transplant and prevent the need for second transplants. Educational Objectives At the end of this educational activity, participants will be able to: 1. List 2 challenges faced in organ donation within the state of Hawaii. 2. Recognize the benefits of utilizing living donor kidneys for transplant recipients. 3. Review the basic concepts of the new UNOS kidney allocation system. 4. Discuss the utilization and management of high risk donor organs in transplant recipients. 5. Incorporate strategies for the prevention and/or management of long-term post transplant medical concerns including: a. Infections b. Cardiovascular issues c. Gerontology considerations d. Malignancies e. Endocrine and metabolic abnormalities
