The enhancement centers on a new concept called ‘failure-aware’ matching that takes pre-transplant compatibility failures into account probabilistically. Depending somewhat on the exact setting, the method can roughly double the number of transplants.
A new study has sought to address these challenges of kidney exchange matching and introduced the concept of "failure-aware" algorithmic matching to improve success rates. The study, "Failure-Aware Kidney Exchange," was published in the INFORMS journal Management Science.
