Pediatric Organ Donation and Donor Management

Pediatric organ donation and transplantation can provide a significant life-saving benefit to both pediatric and adult patients. Because children comprise such a small subgroup of organ transplant recipients, it is common for organs recovered from pediatric donors to be transplanted in adult recipients. During this webinar, the impact of pediatric organ donors on the adult waiting list will be highlighted, along with the UNOS policies that are specific to pediatric candidates on the waiting list. Additionally, brain death diagnosis and donor management challenges that are unique to a pediatric organ donor will be discussed. Presented on February 5, 2019 by Dr. Thomas Nakagawa and Dr. Marty Sellers.
