How organs are matched

UNOS saves lives through organ transplantation, matching and distribution. Understand the many factors considered in prioritizing organ transplant patients

Once the patient is "listed", the transplant hospital adds the patient's medical information to the UNOS computer system. When determining a dead organ donor, the UNOS computer system ranks the transplant candidates based on blood type, organization type, urgency, latency, expected benefit, geographic location, and other medical criteria Generate a list or "match".

When matching the pancreas with the kidney, the type of gene organization is also taken into consideration. We will use a computer to provide a list of waiting patients to the CORE Coordinator and try to match the organs to the recipients of the CORE donation service area. If a specific organ can not be matched in the CORE region, that organ is provided for each region and is provided nationwide as necessary. If the recipients match, the CORE Coordinator will send an electronic message to the transplant organ center to the patient matching the donor organ. It is the responsibility of the patient's transplant surgeon to decide whether or not to accept the organ. If the surgeon rejects the patient's organs, the CORE Coordinator will contact the transplant surgeon of the next patient on the list. Continue processing each organ until all organs correctly match the recipient.

Looking at this, thousands of people are waiting for organ transplants. After the donor dies, the organ is quickly harvested and must be sent to the hospital for transplant within a few hours. In order to avoid dangerous situations where rejection, the body attacks new organs, the organ must also be matched to the patient. Therapeutic cloning makes it possible to avoid these problems. Therapeutic cloning can be used to remove cells within the patient's own body and inject DNA into the stem cells. The tissue is cultured in new organs in the laboratory and produces the best match for the patient without waiting for a matching donor.

One of the tasks of organ transplantation is to match the organs to the patient. Blood, tissue, and size are a number of factors that need to be matched between donor organs and recipients. These problems make it more difficult to find the right donor for those who need it, as well as the classical supply and demand dilemma. However, according to at least some people's solutions, it may be a solution considered in gray anatomy. Two-thirds of the world's countries do not support or sanction the death penalty, but China and the United States are two countries where the death penalty still exists (pun). From the point of view of "Utilitarianism", currently there are about 3,000 prisoners in the United States. In other words, there are about 3,000 potential organ donors.
