Abstract:
The United Network for Organ Sharing (UNOS) recently changed the policy by which donor livers are allocated to liver failure patients in the United States. Formerly, all liver failure patients were characterized as status 1 and placed at the top of the transplant list. Under the new policy, only patients with liver failure due to acute illness (“ALF patients”) are eligible for status 1; patients with liver failure due to chronic liver disease (“CLF patients”) are characterized as status 2. Since donor organs are allocated first to status 1 patients and then to status 2 patients, the new policy

Abstract:
Debates continue to surround the system in the United States for allocating transplantable cadaveric organs, due in large part to the scarcity of such organs in relation to the number of individuals waiting to undergo transplantation. Candidates awaiting transplantation gain access to cadaveric organs by being placed by individual transplant programs on the national list of the Organ Procurement and Transplantation Network (OPTN), overseen by the United Network for Organ Sharing (UNOS). In recent years, the UNOS board has visited (and revisited) the issue of multiple listing, that is, allowing

Abstract Background Improving outcomes of transplant recipients within and across transplant centers is important with the increasing number of organ transplantations being performed. The current practice is to analyze the outcomes based on patient level data submitted to the United Network for Organ Sharing (UNOS). Augmenting the UNOS data with other sources such as the electronic health record will enrich the outcomes analysis, for which a common data model (CDM) can be a helpful tool for transforming heterogeneous source data into a uniform format.

In 2019, the United Network for Sharing (UNOS), which has been operating the Organ Procurement and Transplantation Network (OPTN) in the United States since 1984, was seeking to design a new national lung transplant allocation policy.

Abstract:
Background The objective of this study was to evaluate annual heart transplant volumes and 3-year post-transplant outcomes since establishment of United Network for Organ Sharing (UNOS) database stratified by race. Methods The UNOS thoracic transplant database was evaluated for adult patients since 1987. The available database was then stratified by Race: Black, White and Other and era of transplant: group 1(1987–1991), group 2(1992–1996), group 3(1997–2001), group 4(2002–2006), group 5(2007–2011), group 6(2012–2016) and group 7(2017 and later). Demographic and clinical factors were evaluated.

Abstract:
This review discusses extending liver transplantation to patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) beyond established United Network for Organ Sharing (UNOS) criteria. After a thorough review of the literature, ethical issues are discussed with particular attention to informed decision making regarding autonomy and paternalism, especially considering patients without preexisting medical knowledge may have difficulty making informed decisions in times of emotional stress and facing an otherwise terminal illness. Additionally, a discussion of just organ allocation is addressed during a time o

Abstract:
<p><b>Introduction:</b> More than 3 decades have passed since the first heterotopic heart transplantation (HHT) was reported. Nowadays, this surgical technique is used rarely, and only in patients who do not qualify for standard orthotopic heart transplantation (OHT). Current indications mainly comprise refractory pulmonary hypertension and a donor-recipient size mismatch (>20%). The objective of this study was to analyze the United States experience with HHT.</p><p><b>Patients and Methods:</b> The United Network for Organ Sharing (UNOS) database be

Abstract:
Clinically significant immunological reactions to exogenous insulin are classified as local or generalized. Most of the insulin allergies are local reactions which usually improve or resolve spontaneously. Generalized allergic reactions to insulin range in severity from simple urticaria to life‐threatening anaphylaxis. Most of the allergic reactions to exogenous insulin are antibody‐mediated reactions to antigens such as zinc, protamine, non‐insulin proteins, and aggregates of insulin molecules as well as animal antigens. Immunologic reactions to endogenous insulin usually result in insulin re

Abstract:
AbstractAs lung transplantation became established therapy for end-stage lung disease, there were not nearly enough suitable lungs from brain-dead organ donors to meet the need, leading to a focus on how lungs are allocated for transplant. Originally lungs were allocated by the United Network for Organ Sharing (UNOS) like hearts—by waiting time, first to listed recipients in the organ procurement organization of the donor, then to potential recipients in concentric 500 nautical mile circles. This resulted in long waiting times and increasing waitlist deaths. In 1999, the Health Resources and S
