About the Documents
KPD Protocol: The Kidney Paired Donation Protocol for Participating Donors (2019), developed by the Canadian Blood Services' Living Donation Advisory Committee, establishes national standards for assessing and accepting living kidney donors participating in Canada's Kidney Paired Donation Program. The protocol harmonizes medical, psychosocial, and ethical criteria to ensure donor safety, optimize organ quality, and reduce interprovincial variability.
KDIGO Guidelines: The KDIGO 2017 Clinical Practice Guideline on the Evaluation and Care of Living Kidney Donors provides comprehensive, evidence-based recommendations for assessing donor candidates, informed consent, compatibility testing, preoperative management, and lifelong postdonation follow-up. It emphasizes quantitative risk assessment frameworks and evidence-based evaluation.
Both documents outline eligibility requirements, contraindications, and ongoing monitoring practices. Select your preferred guideline above to get started, or use the "Change Document" button to switch between them at any time.
