Validation of the Kidney Donor Profile Index (KDPI) to assess a deceased donor’s kidneys’ outcome in a European cohort

The Kidney Donor Profile Index (KDPI) was introduced in the United States in 2014 to guide the decision making of clinicians with respect to accepting or declining a donated kidney. To evaluate whether the KDPI can be applied to a European cohort, we retrospectively assessed 580 adult patients who u...

The Kidney Donor Profile Index (KDPI) was introduced in the United States in 2014 to guide the decision making of clinicians with respect to accepting or declining a donated kidney. To evaluate whether the KDPI can be applied to a European cohort, we retrospectively assessed 580 adult patients who underwent renal transplantation (brain-dead donors) between January 2007 and December 2014 at our center and compared their KDPIs with their short- and long-term outcomes. This led to the observation of two associations: one between the KDPI and the estimated glomerular filtration rate at one year (1-y-eGFR) and the other between the KDPI and the death-censored allograft survival rate (both p
