IPTA Pediatric Transplantation Landscape

Child Organ Allocation Advocacy: An International Initiative

The International Pediatric Transplant Association (IPTA) believes it is important to represent the community of members, patients, and families it serves. By broadening the scope of advocacy, we promote the cause of children and young people who will benefit from transplants around the world.

 The International Advocacy group has been shedding light to the current landscape of pediatric transplant organ allocation. To date, pediatric patient wait list mortality continues to exist due to the persistent disparity between organ supply and demand.

Below is one of two questionnaires that aims to identify current pediatric transplant programs and allocation policies around the world. Once the first questionnaire is filed, a second short survey dedicated to your area of specialty will be forwarded.

Thank you for your participation in the IPTA. We invite you to read more about our initiative in our most recent publication on this topic at, https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/petr.14317


Thank you!
