During this presentation, we will discuss the process of merging donation organizations. Changes in the donation landscape, regulatory oversight, and metric criteria have led to mergers and shifts in donation service area lines. First, New England Donor Services will discuss the growing pains from the combination of New England Organ Bank and LifeChoice. Then, we will review the ongoing merger of The Living Legacy Foundation and Washington Regional Transplant Community.

Recovery team staff and AOCs from organizations covering 16 states join AATB to review challenging and complex cases. These case studies delve into challenging situations that arise when completing the risk assessment, during medical record review, during the physical assessment, and more. After each case has been reviewed the audience will be able participate in interactive surveys providing input on how they would proceed. Each case study will conclude with the outcome or disposition.

The current system between the Living Legacy Foundation OPO and their local Medical Examiner’s office requires frequent calls to obtain “cooling times” for decedents being evaluated as potential tissue donors. These calls are a distraction to the autopsy technicians’ primary duties and the information obtained may be inaccurate. Automation and validation of cooling time data collection would reduce the risk of inaccurate time logging and time to determine tissue donor suitability. These improvements could lead to a reduction in bacterial contamination improving recipient safety.
