Question #1What challenges have you encountered since the
implementation of KAS?
• Responses:– (53%) Prior “Top listed” pts. were ready to
go for tx. New top list “CPRA group”, some of these pts. are not ready to go. •Not mentally prepared - anticipated waiting
longer•Pts. have not been recently seen by the team, do
not have current sera, not financially cleared or insurance has changed
•Pt. understanding of the new KAS - more pt. education needed, confusing and difficult for pts. to understand.

Question #1What challenges have you encountered since the
implementation of KAS?
• Responses:– (47%) Long distance OPOs refusing to
send blood to facilitate cross match on high PRA pts. • Unable to do cross match prior to OR,
demanding the tx ctr. does a virtual cross match first, which delays the process and increases the CIT. Possible manipulation of the system?
– (12%) Kidneys from local donors use to stay locally, now most of those kidneys go outside the DSA to other centers.

Question #1What challenges have you encountered since the
implementation of KAS?
• Responses:– (1%) Increase volume of “ Top Listed” patients
on waitlist – (1%) 98-100% Highly Sensitized patients
coming up quicker than anticipated. – (1%) Scoring of pediatric en-bloc is not
appropriate• Falling in the KDPI >85% requiring consent
– (1%) Kidney’s are coming in for high PRA with no local back-up (back up not allowed for highly sensitized patients), therefore kidneys are being sent back

Question #2What changes you have made as a results of the
new KAS?
• Responses:– (100%) Implementation of a new KDPI Consent – (24%) Created an additional top listed pt. list to
ensure these pts. are ready for tx (blood group & CPRA)
– (24%) Education – staff, physicians, and patients– (5%) Increased age limit for organ acceptance
which increased organ offers– (1 %) Review new “ Top Listed” to be financially
cleared.– (1%) Look at MFI for all patients with high
CPRA’s

Question #3What successes you have encountered since the
implementation of KAS?
• Responses:– (53%) More kidney offers, highly
sensitized patients that never received an offer before are now receiving multiple offers and are getting transplanted quicker. More Transplants !!
– (18%)Younger pt’s are coming up on the match run, offered better kidneys, offered younger kidneys
– (18%) No benefits or success at this time
![Page 11: The Impact of the new Kidney Allocation System on Donation and Transplantation in Region 5](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022072010/56649dd35503460f94aca5f6/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Additional Comments• Overall tx volume decreased (not sure if it is
because of the new KAS)• Pediatric & K/P pts. - not receiving as many offers
(majority of good kidneys going to the highly sensitized pts.) = longer wait time
• Concerns: non-compliant pts. loose their kidneys & become highly sensitized, now being given priority & transplanted before other compliant pts., pediatric or K/P pts.
• Still learning – virtual cross match when offered highly sensitized pts
• Hopeful that the KAS will bring more equitability • Happy to see that paybacks are a “thing of the
past”

Question #1What challenges have you encountered since the
implementation of KAS?
• Increase in import offers and imports• Learning the logistics and gray areas
between the KAS, PAS and Liver allocation
• Logistics of orchestrating prospective x-matches with high CPRA candidates
• Increased HLA laboratory demands for typing

Question #2What changes you have made as a results of the
new KAS?
• Biopsy criteria now considers KDPI instead of ECD
• No longer tracking paybacks• Tracking more data (learned from
our Share 35 experience)• Crossmatch Process Changes• Local Back-up Procedures

Question #3What successes you have encountered since the
implementation of KAS?
• Intended Receipents are being transplanted• Increased oppurtunities for staff education and
optimazating of process• Increased number of high CPRA candidates being
transplanted• Increased interaction with local and regional
transplant programs• Increased awareness of local center acceptance
practice• Increased attention to how we can optimize placing
