Limitations of the GIR in Renal Transplantation. Figure 2 presents the main limitations, expressed in percentages, of the use of the GIR within renal transplantation mentioned by the participants. The percentage for each limitation corresponds to the number of times each of these was mentioned by the participants. The main limitation is lack of access to a graft; followed by the difficulty of the risk associated with each of the 4 factors; the difficulty of quantifying criteria considered more subjective (psychosocial and clinical), particularly for specific patients; the difficulty of calculating the global risk; as well as physician loss of autonomy through use of the GIR, and the loss of the human side with this approach.
