e waiting list is long and about 2 % of them die each year waiting. The longer they wait for a transplant, the worse their outcomes. Research shows that receiving a kidney from a living donor gives the recipient the best survival rates of at least 15 to 20 years. On the other hand a transplant from a deceased donor lasts from 10 to 15 years. But the incompatibility factor again plays an important role which reduces the chance of transplantation.

Hence in conclusion he said that they are putting in their best effort to set up a computerized pair registry for the benefit of the patients who are waiting for a kidney transplant.
