DonorCheck Overview
DonorCheck is a tool developed by the Division of Computational Pathology at the University of Minnesota, Twin Cities, to minimize data entry errors related to organ transplant.
This tool was created to address the workflow disconnect between organ donor typing data and the UNOS DonorNet system. DonorNet is a web interface into which all organ donors must be entered, with their HLA typing. But typing data can come from a variety of sources, which have no knowledge of DonorNet (and vice versa). Although the raw reports can be uploaded and attached to a donor's typing, ultimately all processing and interpretation is performed by a human. This presents the possibility for mistakes, which could pose serious risk to transplant recipients.
To address this risk, DonorCheck has two primary goals:
- To standardize the different formats of typing data, unifying instrument reports and DonorNet data into a common format for software-based comparison
- To create a user interface/experience facilitating consistent, reproducible comparison
