Keystone – Gift of Life Conference Call August 20, 2008 Update: Transplant Growth & Management Collaborative

Goal of the Transplant Growth and Management Collaborative “Save or enhance thousands of lives a year by maximizing the number of organs transplanted from each and every donor and building the necessary capacity within the Nation’s transplant programs to transplant 35,000 organs annually.” (TGMC)

This Goal is Achievable Goal 35, ,469 Difference10,531 Tx Programs 851 Additional Tx 12.3/year or 1/month

Close “the Gap”; Reach “Capacity,” Achieve 35,000. Capacity is reached when a DSA produces 75% conversion rates; 3.75 organs transplanted per donor and 10% DCD (with 2.75 OTPD) and generates sufficient resources to transplant the resulting organ supply.

Results of Michigan Transplant Centers’ PDSAs A LEAN “no show” process was created that decreased the patient “no show” rate from 30% to 19% in 2 months. A children’s hospital has implemented an approach team. A kidney program has added a transplant surgeon and a list management coordinator. A thoracic program has added 2 transplant surgeons. A liver program has added a transplant surgeon.

Results of Michigan Transplant Centers’ PDSAs Daily e-reports reflect every vented patient for virtual rounding. Length of time required to prepare a patient for placement on the transplant waiting list has been shortened. Two transplant centers have dedicated a hospital FTE to support and facilitate organ donation activities.
