Transplant Decision Making Tools: A Major Upside for Your Transplant Program
Presented on: Tuesday, March 28, 2023
In 2022, over 7500 kidneys were discarded, twice the number just four years ago. Acceptance practices vary 100-fold between programs and even within programs. While troublesome, the number of kidneys available for transplant presents an extraordinary opportunity to increase transplant and save more lives. Chris Zinner and members of his team at Accenture will share the extensive research they did for HRSA on transplant program acceptance practices and physician decision making. Chris will highlight ways the decision-making process could be improved, while Michael Ghaffari of UNOS will join us to discuss how this new tool was implemented to assist decision makers and improve the consistency of organ acceptance practice.
- Describe the factors that influence our decision making.
- Demonstrate an understanding of how to systemically approach improving decision making at their institution.
- Summarize how to use new tools available to transplant professionals and patients that can drive better data driven decisions.
