  • Title: The National Organ Transplantation Breakthrough Collaborative--a Rhode Island hospital perspective.
    Author: Dushay KM, Walker SD.
    Journal: Med Health R I; 2007 Mar; 90(3):91-3. PubMed ID: 17601290.
    Abstract:
    Patients needing organ transplants still exceed the number of organs, and each year some patients on waiting lists die. A series of national collaborative meetings identified practices shown to increase organ donation consent rates and organs procured per donor. A partnership between the NEOB and donor hospitals is important to achieve these goals. By following best practices set forth by the Collaborative movement and put in place by NEOB, physicians can increase the supply of donor organs in New England and nationally.
