Kidney Post 5 Year Transplant Recipient Follow-up (TRF) Field Descriptions

Transplant Recipient Follow-up (TRF) records are generated in Tiedi® at six months, one year and annually thereafter following transplantation, until either graft failure, recipient death or lost to follow-up is reported. Pediatric follow-up records will continue to generate through the recipient's 25th birthday. The system will automatically update the next follow-up record to Adult as of the recipient's 26th birthday.

The TRF record is to be completed by the transplant center responsible for follow-up of the recipient at intervals of six months, one year and annually thereafter. The record is to contain only the applicable patient information since the last follow-up period. It is not to contain information pertaining solely to the previous or next follow-up period. For example: the 6-month follow-up should contain information from the time after the TRR was completed to the 6-month transplant anniversary date; the 1-year follow-up should contain information from the day after the 6-month transplant anniversary date to the 1-year transplant anniversary date; the 2-year follow-up should contain information from the day after the 1-year transplant anniversary date to the 2-year anniversary date.

If the recipient dies or experiences a graft failure between follow-up intervals, complete an interim record containing the information pertinent to the patient no later than the date of death or graft failure. For example: an interim graft failure is reported with a graft failure date of March 10. The patient status date should also be March 10 and the information collected on the form should be based on patient evaluation no later than March 10.

TRF records generated before June 30, 2002 are forgiven except for the one-year, three-year, death/graft failure or most recently expected follow-up record. Amnesty records may be accessed by selecting the Expected/Amnesty and/or Amnesty option on the Search page. (For additional information, see Searching for Patient Records and Records Generation.)

If the patient is lost to follow-up, follow the steps for Reporting Lost to Follow-up.

The TRF record must be completed within 90 days from the record generation date. See OPTN/UNOS Policies for additional information. Use the search feature to locate specific policy information on Data Submission Requirements.

To correct information that is already displayed on an electronic record, call the UNetSM Help Desk at 1-800-978-4334.

Recipient Information

Name: Verify the last name, first name and middle initial of the transplant recipient is correct. If the information is incorrect, corrections may be made on the recipient's TCR record.

DOB: Verify the displayed date is the recipient's date of birth. If the information is incorrect, corrections may be made on the recipient's TCR record.

SSN: Verify the recipient's social security number is correct. If the information is incorrect, contact the Help Desk at 1-800-978-4334.

Gender: Verify the recipient's gender is correct. If the information is incorrect, corrections may be made on the recipient's TCR record.

HIC: Verify the 9 to 11 character Health Insurance Claim number for the recipient indicated on the recipient's most recently updated TCR record is correct. If the recipient does not have a HIC number, you may leave this field blank.

Tx Date: The recipient's transplant date, reported in the Recipient Feedback, will display. Verify that the displayed transplant date is correct. The transplant date is determined by the start of the organ anastomosis during transplant or the start of the islet infusion. Organ transplants include solid organ transplants and islet infusions. An organ transplant procedure is complete when any of the following occurs:

The chest or abdominal cavity is closed and the final skin stitch or staple is applied.

The transplant recipient leaves the operating room, even if the chest or abdominal cavity cannot be closed.

The islet infusion is complete.

Previous Follow-up: The recipient's follow-up status, reported in the previous TRF record, will display. Verify the recipient's previous follow-up status is correct.

Previous Px Stat Date: The recipient's patient status date, reported in the previous TRF record, will display. Verify the recipient's previous patient status date is correct.

Transplant Discharge Date: Enter the date the recipient was released to go home, or verify that the discharge date displayed is the date the recipient was released to go home. The patient's hospital stay includes total time spent in different units of the hospital, including medical and rehab. This field is required.

Note: The Transplant Discharge Date can only be edited on the patient's TRR, 6-month TRF and 1-year TRF. To correct this information on a follow-up that is after the 1-year TRF, access one of these three records and enter the correct date. The corrected information will automatically update on the other records.

State of Permanent Residence: Select the name of the state of the recipient's permanent address at the time of follow-up (location of full-time residence, not follow-up center location). This field is required. (List of State codes)

Zip Code: Enter the recipient's permanent zip code at the time of follow-up (location of full-time residence, not follow-up center location). This field is required.

Provider Information

Recipient Center: The Recipient Center information reported in Waitlist displays. Verify that the center information is the hospital where the transplant operation was performed. The Provider Number is the 6-character Medicare identification number of the hospital. This is followed by the Center Code and Center Name.

Followup Center: The follow-up center, reported in the recipient's previous validated TRF record, will display. Verify the center name, center code and provider number for the center following the patient.

Donor Information

UNOS Donor ID #: The UNOS Donor ID number, reported in the Recipient Feedback, will display. Each potential donor is assigned an identification number by OPTN/UNOS. This ID number corresponds to the date the donor information was entered into the OPTN/UNOS computer system.

Donor Type: The donor type, reported in the Recipient Feedback, will display. Verify the recipient's donor type is correct. If the information is incorrect, contact the Help Desk at 1-800-978-4334.

Deceased indicates the donor was not living at the time of donation.
Living
indicates the donor was living at the time of donation.

Patient Status

Date: Last Seen, Retransplanted or Death: Enter the date the patient was last seen, the date of death, or the date of retransplant for this recipient, using the standard 8-digit numeric format of MM/DD/YYYY. The follow-up records (6-month, 1-year, 2-year, etc.) are to be completed within 30 days of the 6-month and yearly anniversaries of the transplant date. If the recipient died or the graft failed, and you have not completed an interim follow-up indicating these events, the 6-month and annual follow-ups should be completed indicating one of those two events. This field is required.

Patient Status: If the recipient is living at the time of follow-up, select Living. If the recipient died during this follow-up period, select Dead. Follow-up forms will no longer be generated for this patient. If Dead is selected, indicate the cause of death. If the recipient received another kidney from a different donor during the follow-up period, select Retransplanted. If the recipient was not seen during this follow-up period, select Not Seen; however, an annual follow-up form will be generated for this patient next year. This field is required.

Clinical Information

Date of Measurement: (Complete for recipients younger than 18 years of age at transplant and younger than 26 years of age at follow-up.) Enter the date, using the 8-digit format of MM/DD/YYYY, the recipient’s height and weight were measured. This field is required.

Height: (Complete for recipients younger than 18 years of age at transplant and younger than 26 years of age at follow-up.) Enter the height of the recipient at the time of follow-up in the appropriate space, in feet and inches or centimeters. This field is required.  If the recipient’s height is unavailable, select the appropriate status from the ST field (N/A, Not Done, Missing, Unknown). (List of Status codes) UNet will generate and display calculated percentiles based on the 2000 CDC growth charts.

Weight: (Complete for recipients younger than 18 years of age at transplant and younger than 26 years of age at follow-up.) Enter the weight of the recipient at the time of follow-up in the appropriate space, in pounds or kilograms. This field is required. If the recipient’s weight is unavailable, select the appropriate status from the ST field (N/A, Not Done, Missing, Unknown). (List of Status codes) UNet will generate and display calculated percentiles based on the 2000 CDC growth charts.

BMI (Body Mass Index): For candidates less than 20 years of age during the follow-up period, UNet will generate and display calculated percentiles based on the 2000 CDC growth charts.

Percentiles are the most commonly used clinical indicator to assess the size and growth patterns of individual children in the United States. Percentiles rank the position of an individual by indicating what percent of the reference population the individual would equal or exceed (i.e. on the weight-for-age growth charts, a 5 year-old girl whose weight is at the 25th percentile, weighs the same or more than 25 percent of the reference population of 5-year-old girls, and weighs less than 75 percent of the 5-year-old girls in the reference population). For additional information about CDC growth charts, see http://www.cdc.gov/.

Note: Users who check the BMI percentiles against the CDC calculator may notice a discrepancy that is caused by the CDC calculator using 1 decimal place for height and weight and UNet using 4 decimal places for weight and 2 for height.

Graft Status: If the graft is functioning at the time of follow-up, select Functioning. If the graft is not functioning at the time of follow-up, select Failed.

Note: If death is indicated for the recipient, and the death was a result of some other factor unrelated to graft failure, select Functioning.

If functioning, Most Recent Serum Creatinine: Enter the most recent lab value for the serum creatinine value in mg/dl taken closest to the time of follow-up. If the value is not available, select the status from the ST field (N/A, Not Done, Missing, Unknown).

Date of Failure: Enter the graft failure date using the standard 8-digit numeric format of MM/DD/YYYY.

Primary Cause of Graft Failure: Select the primary cause of graft failure. If Other, Specify is selected, enter the cause of failure in the space provided. (List of Graft Failure codes)

Acute Rejection
Graft Thrombosis
Infection
Urological Complications
Recurrent Disease
Chronic Rejection
BK (Polyoma) Virus
Primary Non-Function (Graft Never Functioned Post-Transplant)
Other, Specify

Post Transplant Malignancy: If the recipient has been diagnosed with any malignant cancer since the last follow-up, select Yes. If not, select No. If unknown, select UNK. If Yes is selected, at least one of the fields listed below must be completed. A Post Transplant Malignancy record will generate when one or more of the fields listed below is selected. This field is required. For additional information, see Post Transplant Malignancy Record Fields.

Donor Related: If the malignancy is donor related, select Yes. If not, select No. If unknown, select UNK. If Yes is selected, the Donor Related section will be displayed on the Post Transplant Malignancy record. For additional information, see Post Transplant Malignancy Record Fields - Donor Related.

Recurrence of Pre-Tx tumor: If a pre-transplant tumor has recurred, select Yes. If not, select No. If unknown, select UNK. If Yes is selected, the Recurrence of Pretransplant Malignancy section will be displayed on the Post Transplant Malignancy record. For additional information, see Post Transplant Malignancy Record Fields - Recurrence of Pretransplant Malignancy.

Post Tx De Novo Solid Tumor: If the cancer was a De Novo solid tumor, select Yes. If not, select No. If unknown, select UNK. If Yes is selected, the Post Transplant De Novo Solid Tumor section will be displayed on the Post Transplant Malignancy record. For additional information, see Post Transplant Malignancy Record Fields - Post Transplant De Novo Solid Tumor.

De Novo Lymphoproliferative disease and Lymphoma: If the cancer was post transplant lymphoproliferative disease or lymphoma, select Yes. If not, select No. If unknown, select UNK. If Yes is selected, the Post Tx Lymphoproliferative Disease and Lymphoma section will be displayed on the Post Transplant Malignancy record. For additional information, see Post Transplant Malignancy Record Fields - Post Tx Lymphoproliferative Disease and Lymphoma.

Note: When a patient has a tumor during one follow up period and the tumor continues into the next follow-up period without going away, the tumor should only be reported on that first follow-up record and not reported on the next follow-up record. The tumor should be reported on subsequent follow-up records ONLY if the tumor goes away and then returns in the next follow-up period.
