TRANSFER OF ORGANS FROM DONOR TO RECIPIENT USING AN ON-LINE COMMUNICATION SYSTEM

摘要

A method of communicating information of donated organs or tissues from an operating room of a donor to a recipient, including taking data (10, 18, 20, 22, 24, 25) from and about the organ or tissue and inputting the data directly into a computer connected to a network through each stage of organ qualification, removal, cleansing, profusion, and transplantation so that an OPA (14) and a recipient's physician (16) can determine whether the appropriate organ or tissue has been selected for a predetermined recipient.
