Deceased Donor Registration (DDR) records are generated and available as soon as the donor organ disposition process (Donor Feedback) is completed in DonorNet®. The Deceased Donor Registration record is to be completed only for deceased donors from who at least one organ has been recovered for purposes of transplantation.
An authorized but not recovered donor is one in which authorization was obtained but the organs were not recovered for transplantation.
Organ recovery teams may only recover organs that they have received authorization to recover. An authorized organ should be recovered if it is transplantable or a transplant recipient is identified for the organ. If an authorized organ is not recovered, the host OPO must document the specific reason for non-recovery. This policy does not apply to VCA transplants.
A recovered organ donor refers to situations where authorization was obtained and at least one organ was recovered for the purpose of transplantation.
The DDR record must be completed within 60 days from the record generation date. See OPTN Policies for additional information. Use the search feature to locate specific policy information on Data Submission Requirements.
Additional Resources: See History of Definition Changes.

% Macro vesicular fat: If Yes is selected for Liver Biopsy, enter the percentage of macro vesicular fat. This field is required. If data is unavailable, select the reason from the status (ST) drop-down list (N/A, Not Done, Missing, Unknown).
Macrovesicular - Large fat droplets balloon the liver cell, displacing the nucleus to the periphery of the cell, like an adipocyte. Triglycerides accumulate most commonly because it has the highest turnover rate of all hepatic fatty acid esters. Liver uptake of FFA from adipose tissue and the diet is unrestrained, whereas FFA disposition by oxidation, esterification, and VLDL secretion is limited.
% Micro/intermediate vesicular fat: If Yesis selected for Liver Biopsy, enter the percentage of micro/intermediate vesicular fat. This field is required. If data is unavailable, select the reason from the status (ST) drop-down list (N/A, Not Done, Missing, Unknown).
Microvesicular - Fatty liver, small fat droplets accumulate, cells appear foamy, and nuclei are central. Triglycerides collect in subcellular organelles (i.e. endoplasmic reticulum), reflecting widespread metabolic disturbance. Mitochondrial injury limits FFA oxidation, while apoprotein synthesis necessary for VLDL secretion is depressed, leading to triglyceride accumulation.
