International cooperation 1 Eutransplant ( HU, hypersensitive patients, optimal matching, evaluation, optimal usage of organs ) Vienna – twinning programme for lung tx Bergamo, Graz for children programmes, liver, kidney Due to limited facilities at health care, number of cases, number of experts Slovenia is not able to cover all needs and develop all programmes by itself: 20
International cooperation 2 with ONT, CNT and many important experts in the field of donation, transplantation On many EC projects, for EDD Guidelines is leading partner We are able to notice and analyze some aspects better that bigger countries nd therefore we could share such experience with other countries 21
The purposes of national transplant network • Increase the availability of organs for transplantation • Fully exploit the potential of donation from deceased donors • Include all programs for the acquisition of organs(donation system from living donors, as a complementary program) • Equal opportunity for treatment with transplantation for all patients • Integration with clinicians
The tasks at the level of governmentThe tasks at the level of government • Legislative documents • Organizational sheme,competent instition • Safety and quality as prevention of misuse, abuse • Traceability, transparency • Efficiency • Finances
The tools for quality and safety in the field of donation Coordinators Protocols, guidelines Education od health care proffesionals and ICU doctors Motivation of ICU doctors Promotion of donation International cooperation Informatics program Controlling and monitoring the efficiency, QAPs 24
ICU - Intensive care doctors Knowledge, awareness, motivation • to treat the patient optimally • to communicate with relatives before death • to recognise a non responsive apnoeic coma • to make a decision to start BD diagnostics • to maintain the donor
Determination of death ,detection of the donor Treatment Maintenance Removal,Tx Patient Donor consent
Motivation in the ICU To know the purpose of the procedures and the results very well To release psychological burden To trust into the procedures To find the help and the support
Positive overall attitude to organ donation and procedure among ICU doctors(Avsec, Logar-Zakrajšek, 2009)
Priorities for the near future 1. Education, auditing and motivating ICU for increasing donor rate 2. Improve WL for KTx (now 3,5 %) 3. EU directives on organ donation 4. Collaboration • We offer educational modules on brain death diagnosticsand research on public awareness • Coopeartion with SEEHN countries as benchmarking. • Related to ICU role in the donor progamme we offer the cooperation in joint actions on motivation and improving organizational, technical and ethical aspects on the basis of our own twenty-year-experience and current european knowledge reached as partners in different projects.
Diagnostics of brain death, workshop • In February 2012, Ljubljana • Three parts: • Theoretical overview with round table discussions • Practical part of clinical tests in the ICU • Practical part in the simulation center on the basis of PACT porgramme • Cooperation between Slovenija transplant, UMC Ljubljana and regional office for SEEHN countries
