Technological developments in immunology have made it possible to perform kidney transplants between donors and recipients despite antibodies against the donor organ. This allows for a wider range of relationships between recipient and donor. We investigated experiences of, and reflections on, kidney donation among genetic and non\u2010genetic living donors before first consultation at the transplant centre.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Objective<\/jats:title><jats:p>The aim was to investigate early experiences in the process of becoming a living kidney donor (LKD).<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Materials and Methods<\/jats:title><jats:p>The study was conducted within a phenomenological\u2010hermeneutic theoretical framework. Data were generated through semi\u2010structured interviews with 18 potential donors. Data were interpreted and discussed in accordance with the Ricoeur's text interpretation theory on the three levels of na\u00efve reading, structural analysis and critical interpretation and discussion.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Results<\/jats:title><jats:p>Two themes emerged: the decision\u2010making process and dilemmas in decision\u2010making. The study identifies that the decision about donation was made in relation to one's own life, family situation and in relation to the recipient\u2014considerations that demonstrate that a range of dilemmas can occur during the decision\u2010making process. The desire to help was prominent and was of significance in decision\u2010making.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title><jats:p>The study provides insight and knowledge for the health care professionals to meet and involve donors' narratives in reflections about and modifications to clinical nursing practice. It is essential that health care professionals have an understanding and appreciation of the experiences and concerns among LKDs, and this can help in planning and providing individual nursing care and support to donors.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1111\/jorc.12071","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2014,5,12]],"date-time":"2014-05-12T02:46:45Z","timestamp":1399862805000},"page":"88-95","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":23,"title":["LIVING KIDNEY DONATION: CONSIDERATIONS AND DECISION\u2010MAKING"],"prefix":"10.1111","volume":"40","author":[{"given":"Hanne","family":"Agerskov","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Research Unit of Nursing University of Southern Denmark Denmark"},{"name":"Department of Nephrology Odense University Hospital Denmark"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Claus","family":"Bistrup","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Nephrology Odense University Hospital Denmark"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Mette Spliid","family":"Ludvigsen","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Nephrology Aarhus University Hospital Denmark"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Birthe D.","family":"Pedersen","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Research Unit of Nursing University of Southern Denmark Denmark"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2014,5,11]]},"reference":[{"issue":"8","key":"e_1_2_14_2_1","first-page":"725","article-title":"Attitudes toward kidney donation","volume":"95","author":"Aghanwa H.S.","year":"2003","journal-title":"Journal of the National Medical Association"},{"issue":"5","key":"e_1_2_14_3_1","first-page":"485","article-title":"The psychosocial meanings of living related kidney organ donation: recipient and donor perspectives\u2014litterature review","volume":"26","author":"Conrad N.E.","year":"1999","journal-title":"Aana Journal"},{"key":"e_1_2_14_4_1","unstructured":"Danish Data Protection Agency.
