Ethnicity: The Revisions to the Standards for the Classification of Federal Data on Race and Ethnicity (Office of Management and Budget (OMB) Statistical Policy Directive No. 15) define the minimum standards for collecting and presenting data on race and ethnicity for all Federal reporting. The OPTN collection of ethnicity is aligned to this standard.

OMB defines ethnicity to be whether a person self-identifies as Hispanic origin or not. For this reason, ethnicity is broken out in two categories, (1) Hispanic or Latino or (2) Not Hispanic or Latino. Select one ethnicity category or select ‘Ethnicity Not Reported’ if the candidate did not self-identify. This field is required.

If Temporarily Inactive is selected, the candidate is not eligible to appear on the UNet^SM match run. This is a required field.

Active (0)

Temporarily Inactive (7)

Inactive reason: Select the reason the candidate is inactive.

 

Inactive Reason Code	Description
1	Candidate cannot be contacted

Note: The inactive reason TX'ed - removal pending UNet data correction is only to be used when a transplant center removed the incorrect candidate from Waitlist due to transplant and is waiting for UNOS to correct the data so that the correct candidate can be removed with the right donor ID. Candidates should not be set to inactive for this reason for more than 5 days.

Number of previous Kidney Transplants: Indicate the candidate's number of previous kidney transplants. Options 0-9 display in drop-down list. This is a required field.

Number of previous Pancreas Transplants: Indicate the candidate's number of previous pancreas transplants. This is a required field.

Note: A2 is used as shorthand for any blood type A subtype other than A1 (i.e., non-A1, negative for A1). A2B is used as shorthand for any blood type AB subtype other than A1B (i.e., non-A1B, negative for A1B). Policy requires at least two (2) separate blood typings prior to listing. Policy also requires you to review all known available blood type source documents to verify the candidate's blood type.

This is a required field.

If the answer to the question, Has the candidate had regularly administered dialysis for ESRD? is Yes, then the Date of initiation of regularly administered dialysis for ESRD is a required field. The date entered should be the first documented date that the candidate received dialysis treatment for ESRD.

For candidates with undetectable c-peptide values where the c-peptide value is reported as <X value, the threshold (i.e., X) is the acceptable value. For example, if a candidate’s c-peptide value is reported as <0.1 then the threshold is 0.1 and should be entered as “0.1” into the candidate’s c-peptide value field. This is a required field.

C-peptide date: Indicate the date in which the candidate’s c-peptide value was measured.

HLA

Tested for anti HLA antibodies: This is a required field.

Yes, antibodies detected

Yes, no antibodies detected

No, not tested

Note: If a candidate was tested and any HLA antibodies were detected, "Yes, antibodies detected" should be reported even if the level of antibodies is below your center’s MFI cutoff level for listing unacceptable antigens.

Additional Organs

TX Pending

TX’ed - removal pending UNET data correction

Weight currently inappropriate for transplant

Number of previous solid organ transplants from OPTN database: Displays the number of previous solid organ transplants on record in the OPTN database for the candidate's SSN. This information is displayed as a reference to help transplant centers provide the correct number of transplants for each candidate. It is possible that the numbers of previous solid organ transplants displayed based on the OPTN database differs from the actual number of transplants for a patient, due to one or more of the following reasons:

• Incorrect SSN

• Previous transplant outside of the U.S.

• Transplant prior to 1987 and not in OPTN database

Number of previous solid organ transplants: Must be provided for calculating an EPTS score. All prior transplants involving any combination of kidney, liver, pancreas, heart, lung, intestine, or VCA organs, including transplants performed outside the U.S., should be provided. All multi-organ transplants in which the organs came from the same donor (including but not limited to liver-kidney, kidney-pancreas, heart-lung, or kidney-pancreas-intestine transplants) should be counted as ONE prior transplant. This is a required field.

Current diabetes status: If the candidate never had a diagnosis of diabetes, select Does not Have Diabetes. If the candidate has diabetes, select Type I or Type II. If the candidate has any type of drug-induced diabetes, or both Type I and Type II diabetes, select Other Type of Diabetes. If the candidate was previously diagnosed with diabetes but the diabetic condition has been reversed by significant weight loss, gastric bypass surgery, or successful pancreas (or islet cell) transplantation, such that the patient no longer needs insulin or other diabetes medications, select Does not Have Diabetes. However, if the candidate was previously diagnosed with diabetes and the underlying condition has not been reversed, the candidate should still be indicated as diabetic, even if insulin or other diabetic medications are no longer required (due to, for example, starting dialysis). A patient should not be considered as having diabetes based on a diagnosis of gestational diabetes only. This is a required field.

Does not Have Diabetes should be selected for a non-diabetic candidate.
Type I Diabetes is defined as a disease in which the body does not produce any insulin, most often occurring in children and young adults. People with Type 1 diabetes must take daily insulin injections to stay alive. Type 1 diabetes accounts for 5 to 10 percent of diabetes.
Type II Diabetes is defined as a metabolic disorder resulting from the body's inability to make enough, or properly use, insulin. It is the most common form of the disease. Type 2 Diabetes accounts for 90 to 95 percent of diabetes.
Other Type of Diabetes is for any other type of diabetes, such as a candidate with both Type I and Type II, or a drug-induced form of diabetes.

Transplant program must confirm candidate's eligibility every 90 days (± 20 days).

Does candidate meet criteria for A2 and A2B (including patient consent)?: Select Yes if the candidate meets criteria for A2 and A2B. By selecting Yes to this field, an eligible candidate will appear on A2 and A2B Deceased Donor matches. Select No if the candidate is permanently ineligible.

Kidney Donor Acceptance Criteria

Enter the maximum number of HLA mismatches that the candidate is able to accept.

If the ABDR field is completed, the fields in the second section (AB, ADR, and BDR) and third section (A, B and DR) cannot be entered.

If a field in the second section (AB, ADR and BDR) is chosen, select the maximum number of HLA mismatches the candidate can accept in the appropriate field. Upon entering the maximum number of acceptable mismatches, you must complete the corresponding field in the third section. For the AB field selection, enter a value in the DR field below. For the ADR field selection, enter a value in the B field below. For the BDR field selection, enter a value in the A field below.

Note: You may set four different maximum KDPI values for each candidate: one for local zero-ABDR mismatch offers, another for non-local zero-ABDR mismatch offers, as well as for non zero-mismatches, local versus import. By default, candidates already on the list and willing to accept an ECD will have maximum KDPI values set to 100%, while those not on the ECD list will have maximums of 85%. However, you may edit these maximum acceptable KDPI’s for each candidate on the candidate record, as appropriate. Finally, for your convenience, maximum KDPI values can be set in the Listing defaults so that all newly added candidates will have these maximum values automatically entered in the candidate record at time of listing.
