DMGs or Not? The Great Donor Management Debate
February 4, 2025 @ 2:00 pm - 3:00 pm• EST
In this webinar, we will bring together a diverse group of experts from multiple OPOs to discuss the evolving landscape of DMGs. The session will feature insights from OPOs that utilize DMGs as well as those that do not, providing a well-rounded perspective on the advantages and challenges of both approaches. Participants will gain a deeper understanding of what DMGs are and how they impact organ preservation, donor outcomes, and overall efficiency. During our time, we will also cover alternative strategies used by OPOs that do not employ DMGs, offering insights into other effective methods of donor management.
- Demonstrate an understanding of what DMGs are and how they are utilized in organ procurement, including their clinical goals and implementation strategies.
- Evaluate the pros and cons of both donor management models, with particular attention to clinical outcomes, resource allocation, and logistical efficiency.
- Assess the impact of DMGs on organ quality, preservation times, and transplant success rates.
- Explore alternative strategies employed by OPOs not using DMGs and their influence on donor management and operational success.
