Background and objective: The Kidney Donor Profile Index (KDPI), together with other donor and recipient variables, can optimise the organ allocation process. This study aims to check the feasibility of the KDPI for a Spanish population and its predictive ability of graft and patient survival. Materials and methods: Data from 2734 kidney transplants carried out in Andalusia between January 2006 and December 2015 were studied. Cases were grouped by recipient age, categorised by KDPI quartile and both graft and patient survival were compared among groups. Results: The KDPI accurately discriminated optimal organs from suboptimal or marginal ones. For adult recipients (aged: 18–59 years) it presents a hazard ratio of 1.013 (P |
