Organ Allocation: Ethics, Equity, and Future frontiers
Received Date: Jan 02, 2025 / Published Date: Jan 30, 2025
Abstract
Organ allocation systems balance fairness and utility, guided by ethical principles. Modern strategies optimize matching and expand the organ pool while addressing access disparities. Justice in allocation considers urgency, success, and waiting time, grappling with biases. Ethical debates arise from expanded criteria donors, ex vivo perfusion, artificial organs, and xenotransplantation. Equitable distribution and donor safety are paramount. Organ trafficking requires robust legal and international responses. Emergency allocation demands pre-defined ethical guidelines for just distribution.
