Cohort analysis reveals reduced waitlist mortality and improved posttransplant survival under the Composite Allocation Score, indicating broader organ access alongside persistent blood-type...
The implementation of CAS was associated with reduced waitlist mortality, improved access for marginalized groups, and enhanced survival. Lungs were procured from greater distances with an increased use of donation after circulatory death with normothermic regional perfusion or ex vivo perfusion. Disparities remain for ABO type O patients, warranting closer follow-up.
