Data collection
The data collection forms below show what data elements the OPTN currently collects. Transplant hospitals, histocompatibility laboratories, and organ procurement organizations enter data into the OPTN database in UNetSM.
Pre-transplant information is derived primarily from the waitlist and match runs. Transplant professionals enter some pre-transplant information about both candidates and recipients and post-transplant information about recipients on organ-specific OPTN data collection forms. Information used to reconcile donor and recipient data about the transplant is entered on the Donor Organ Disposition record.
