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.

Has the candidate had a prior Kidney transplant?: Select Yes if the candidate had a prior kidney transplant. If not, select No. If the answer is Yes, the question, "Is the prior graft still functioning?" will display. Select Yes or No. If the graft is still functioning, you may enter the kidney donor's Class I and Class II histocompatibility antigens to be considered as "self" antigens on match runs.
Number of previous Pancreas Transplants: Indicate the candidate's number of previous pancreas transplants. This is a required field.
ABO: Select the candidate's blood type. 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. See OPTN Policies for additional information. Use the search feature to locate specific policy information on ABO Typing.

Tested for anti HLA antibodies:
Yes, antibodies detected
Yes, no antibodies detected
No, not tested
Note: If 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.
Select any additional organs the candidate may need. Check any additional organs that the candidate may need. Checking organ(s) within this section will not register the candidate on the checked organ waiting list. You will need to complete a registration and verify the accuracy of donor acceptance criteria for each additional organ checked.
Pancreas Islet
Liver
Intestine
Heart
Heart/Lung
Lung
The following fields are evaluated when running a match to determine if this candidate will appear in the match list. If the donor does not meet the acceptance criteria for this candidate, the candidate will be screened off (not appear on) the match results.
The match will apply local acceptance criteria to include eligible candidates from programs located within 250 NM of the donor hospital and from programs located within the OPO’s Donation Service Area (DSA). The inclusion of DSA in this definition does not impact the order of the match run as that is established and organized by distance-based allocation definitions within OPTN Policies.
When adding a new candidate, the following fields will be auto-filled with your center's pre-determined information if it was entered in the Listing Defaults section of Waitlist.
Candidate and Donor Characteristics
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 selected.
If a field in the second section (AB, ADR or BDR) is completed, select the maximum number of HLA mismatches the candidate can accept in the appropriate field. Upon selecting the maximum number of acceptable mismatches, you must complete the corresponding field in the third section (A, B, or DR). If AB is selected, select a value in the DR field below. If ADR is selected, select a value in the B field below. If BDR is selected, select a value in the A field below.
The third section (A, B and DR) can be completed without selecting values in the previous sections. Select the maximum acceptable number of HLA mismatches for each locus.

Preliminary Crossmatch Required: Select Yes if the candidate required a preliminary cross-match. If not, select No.
Accept Pancreas procured by another team? Select Yes if the candidate will accept a pancreas as procured by another team. If not, select No.
Donor Characteristics
Minimum acceptable donor age: Enter the minimum donor age that the candidate can accept for local and import offers. The age must fall between 0 and 99 years. This field is required.
Maximum acceptable donor age: Enter the maximum donor age that the candidate can accept for local and import offers. The age must fall between 0 and 99 years. The maximum value must only be entered in months if the minimum value is also entered in months (e.g. you are able enter that you will accept donors from 3 months to 3 years in age, but you may NOT enter that you would accept a donor from 1 year to 36 months in age). This field is required.
Minimum acceptable donor weight: Enter the minimum donor weight that the candidate can accept. The weight must be a whole number that falls between 0 and 440 pounds, or 0 and 200 kilograms. The minimum acceptable donor weight should be no more than 30 percent (30%) below the candidate's listing weight. To eliminate the possibility of conversion or rounding issues, the match system deducts .5 kg when comparing this value to the donor weight. This field is required.
Maximum acceptable donor weight: Enter the maximum donor weight that the candidate can accept. The weight must be a whole number that falls between 0 and 440 pounds, or 0 and 200 kilograms. The maximum acceptable donor weight must be more than the candidate's listing weight, and must be greater than the minimum acceptable donor weight. To eliminate the possibility of conversion or rounding issues, the match system deducts .5 kg when comparing this value to the donor weight. This field is required.
Maximum acceptable donor BMI: Enter maximum donor body mass index (BMI) in kilogram-meter squared (kg/m2) that the candidate can accept. The BMI must fall between 5.0 and 100.0 kg/m2.
Accept DCD donor: Select Yes if the candidate will accept a DCD (Donation after Circulatory Death) donor for local and import offers. If not, select No. Donation after Circulatory Death (DCD) describes the organ recovery process that may occur following death by irreversible cessation of circulatory and respiratory functions. A DCD donor may also be called a non-heartbeating, asystolic, or donation after cardiac death donor. This field is required.
Medical & Social History
Accept a donor with a history of diabetes? Select Yes if the candidate will accept a donor with a history of diabetes. If not, select No. A donor should not be considered as having a history of diabetes based on gestational diabetes only.
Infectious Diseases
Accept a Hepatitis B Core antibody positive donor? Select Yes if the candidate will accept a Hepatitis B core antibody positive donor. If not, select No. This field is required.
Accept an HBV NAT positive donor? Select Yes if the candidate will accept an HBV NAT positive donor. If not, select No This field is required.

Accept an HCV NAT positive donor? Select Yes if the candidate will accept an HCV NAT positive donor. If not, select No. This field is required.
Recovery
Maximum miles the organ or recovery team will travel: Enter the maximum number of miles the organ or recovery team will travel. The number of miles must fall between 0 and 9,999 miles. This field is required.
The matching system calculates mileage between the donor hospital and the recipient center based on the hospitals' zip codes. This distance is measured in nautical miles (a measure of flight distance), not in statute miles (a measurement of driving distance).
