Twenty Years of Unspecified Kidney Donation: Unspecified Donors Looking Back on Their Donation Experiences

Mathilde C. Pronk et al.

Summary: This qualitative study aimed to evaluate the experiences of unspecified kidney donors (UKDs) in our transplant institute to improve the care for this valuable group of donors. The data reinforced that unspecified kidney donation is a positive experience for donors and that they were generally satisfied with the procedures. Suggestions are made to address the needs of UKDs, such as shortening the assessment procedure and better acknowledging their contributions.
