European Framework for the Evaluation of Organ Transplants
WP6 - Safety management
The objective of this WP is to develop a common safety management procedure. Specific objectives of this WP are:
-
to review the current available information on criteria applied to transplanted organs from donors with specific conditions. This includes the evaluation of the state of the art on the use of donors with the above mentioned conditions in the participating European countries, the technical conditions required and the legal issues related to their use. Moreover, a systematic review of the available information on the criteria applied to utilize organs from donors with specific conditions will be carried out, as well as on the risks/problems related to their use. A link with the EU funded project, DOPKI will be also established for this purpose.
-
to provide a set of recommendations on the use of such organs;
-
to develop a harmonized system for organ vigilance in organ transplantation, incorporating legal, functional and technical requirements for the management of this system (broad European level):
-
Definition of requirements
-
Definition of responsibilities
-
Definition of safety problems after transplantation to be reported
-
Information to be collected on safety problems after organ transplantation
