Current policy requires testing for living donor from areas endemic for Strongyloides, Chagas (T. cruzi), and West Nile Virus.
Living donor recovery hospitals are struggling with identification of risk factors and testing for these living donors.
The Problem
![Page 3: Recognizing Seasonal and Geographically Endemic Infections in Organ Donors: Considerations during Living Donor Evaluation (Resolution 16) Ad Hoc Disease](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022082817/56649dc35503460f94ab50b0/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
#4- Promote Transplant
Patient Safety• Minimize risk to living
organ donors• Properly evaluate
potential living donors
#5- Promote Living Donor
Safety• Increase capacity to
identify patient safety issues
Strategic Plan

Provide guidance to members regarding the development of a protocol for identifying and testing potential living donors for seasonal and geographically endemic disease.
Goal of the Proposal
![Page 5: Recognizing Seasonal and Geographically Endemic Infections in Organ Donors: Considerations during Living Donor Evaluation (Resolution 16) Ad Hoc Disease](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022082817/56649dc35503460f94ab50b0/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Highlights six “frequently” seen infections of this type based upon review of DTAC experience, existing literature and materials available on the CDC website
Format easily digestible for any member of transplant team using tables, maps, and text
How the Proposal will Achieve its Goal
