The UK Potential Donor Audit
Dr Paul Murphy National Clinical Lead for Organ Donation NHS Blood and Transplant, UK
1 Swedish Inquiry into organ donation and transplantation. April 2014
UK Potential Donor Audit
• History – Established in 2003 – UK-wide audit of the potential for deceased donation
• DBD • DCD
– ICUs and Emergency Departments – Up to age of 80 years (around 30 000 deaths annually) – Data collected by transplant coordinators
• Objectives – Describe potential for deceased donation in UK
• Identify where and why the potential for donation is lost • Inform high level interventions

– ICUs and Emergency Departments – Up to age of 80 years (around 30 000 deaths annually) – Data collected by transplant coordinators
• Objectives – Describe potential for deceased donation in UK
• Identify where and why the potential for donation is lost • Inform high level interventions
– Performance management • Define actions to address ‘leakiness’

Key PDA domains
• Brain death – Preconditions
– Testing rate
– Confirmed
• Referral
• Family approach – Involvement of specialist nurse
• Consent
• Organ retrieval

Donor hospitals Referral of potential DCD donors
Delays in decision making are recognised as an obstacle to the referral of ALL potential DCD donors.

How do we use the data
• Strategic
– Annual report
– Presentations and Publications
– Strategy development
• Performance management
– Hospital reports
– ‘Club 32’
– Regional Collaborative meetings
– Performance management framework

UK Potential Donor Audit
• Every six months, • Sent to Chief Executive
– Copied to Hospital Donation Committee
• Executive Summary (2 pages) – High level data
• Detailed report (20 pages) – Contains donor outcomes, key rates
on potential for organ donation and each of the stages where opportunities were lost
• Published on-line

How can the potential for DBD vary so much?

Summary
• Important overview of donation in UK • Data collection maintains focus on donation in acute
hospitals – Resource hungry
• Greater subjective element than appreciated – Possibility of variation between regions – Performance or measurement?
• Places emphasis on conversion rather than donors pmp – Implications of variations in end of life care may be invisible
