Best practices in donor workup: a transplant center perspective
Description
This webinar provides an overview of proven strategies that have been developed in collaboration with, and viewed from the perspective of, our transplant center partners to improve donor workup timelines.
During this webinar, you will hear experts in the donor and transplant community share insights on how meeting the first requested collection dates and providing timely donor clearance positively impacts donor experience and patient care. We will take a deep dive into donor clearance timelines from a transplant center perspective, as well as share how improvements made by DC001 (our NMDP donor center) have had a positive impact in getting patients to transplant in the timeframe they need.
