Data
The OPTN's secure transplant information database contains all national data on the candidate waiting list, organ donation and matching, and transplantation. This system is critical in helping organ transplant institutions match waiting candidates with donated organs. Institutions also rely on the database to manage time-sensitive, life-critical data of all candidates, before and after their transplants.
A year of lifesaving milestones
Thanks to the selfless gift of organ donors and donor families, new all-time records were set for transplantation in 2022.

OPTN matching function performance OPTN computer system metrics dashboard
Tracks the speed of the OPTN computer system matching function, the monthly overall availability of the OPTN system and provides a summary of software implementations or unplanned system downtime that impacted the matching function. Data on this dashboard comes from a quarterly report provided to the OPTN Network Operations and Oversight Committee by the OPTN contractor.
OPTN computer system metricsOPTN computer system Electronic data submission dashboard
Provides insights on trends in integration between members’ computer systems and the OPTN computer system. Metrics include how often key transplant data is submitted to the OPTN system electronically versus entered manually.
Electronic data submissionNational trends OPTN metrics dashboard
Explore current and historic (since 1988) U.S. donation and transplant trends at national and regional levels. These dashboard visualizations present data involving donors, transplants, and patient and graft survival and show changes across time.
OPTN metricsMeasuring equity Access to transplant dashboard
This dashboard displays data derived from an access to transplant score, or ATS. It monitors trends related to access to deceased donor transplants among active candidates on the waiting list in the U.S.
