6 U.S. Organ Procurement &Transplantation Structure 59Organ Procurement Organizations (OPO)59Organ Procurement Organizations (OPO) –non-profit, federally designated, report to HCFA 272 Medical Institutions w/Txp Programs272 Medical Institutions w/Txp Programs United Network for Organ Sharing (UNOS)United Network for Organ Sharing (UNOS) 2001 U.S. Donation & Transplantation Data:2001 U.S. Donation & Transplantation Data: –deceased organ donors – 6,081 –living organ donors – 6,499 –U.S. transplants performed - 22,854

7 What UNOS Does Facilitates organ matching –Manages Waiting List - establishes candidate wait list criteria –Matches donated organs to patients via 24- hour Organ Center/computer Establishes allocation policies Establishes criteria for transplant centers Maintains data on all donors & Txs. Supports OPOs by educating national healthcare associations & societies

9  Physicians and nurses won’t save me.  I don’t want my body mutilated.  My family will have to pay for donation.  I won’t be able to have an open casket.  My religion doesn’t support donation.  I’m too old/sick to donate.  Only the wealthy receive transplants.  I came into this world with my organs, I’m leaving with them!  Donation and transplantation are for others to worry about; not my family Myths & Misconceptions

36 Donor Family Support  Framed remembrance  Donor Family Booklet  Gift of Life Medal  Gravesite Marker  Donor Family Recognition Ceremonies  Workshops and Conferences

37 Donor Family Communication  Family will receive letter from OPO explaining how loved one helped others through donation  Letter contains only basic information about recipients (age, marital status, hobbies, time on waiting list)  Donor families and recipients may communicate anonymously through OPO  OPO will arrange direct contact if family and recipient mutually agree

38 The Opportunity  42 percent of Pennsylvania drivers have placed the designation on the license  Percentage of registrants by county:  Centre (52.08%)  Chester (51.23%)  Warren (49.66%)  Cumberland (48.23%)  Erie (47.93%)  Bucks (47.45%)  York (47.25%)  Fayette (30.78%)  Philadelphia (29.23%)

39  16-20 year olds are the largest segment placing the designation on the license  Designation rates plummet from an average high of 47.3% of females ages 31-40 to less than 17% for individuals 75 and older  Men are less likely to be registered as donors, but most apt to die in situations in which they can be donors The Opportunity

40  Increase awareness and understanding  Emphasize that donation is life  Stress need to place designation on license/state identification card; sign donor card; share your wishes with family
