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.
-
One million transplants
Milestone reflects generosity of donors, dedication of donation and transplant community.
Visual dashboards
-
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
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.
-
National 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.
-
Lung allocation monitor
OPTN system tracking
What’s the latest lung data? Compare and evaluate pre-and post-policy changes in lung allocation as well as monthly trends, and filter for a variety of criteria.

Allocation calculators
To view data reports, first select the type of data you need:
The calculated panel reactive antibody (CPRA) calculator is used to evaluate candidates for kidney, pancreas and kidney/pancreas transplants.
An estimated post transplant survival (EPTS) score is assigned to all adult candidates on the kidney waiting list.
The kidney donor profile index (KDPI) calculator summarizes the risk of graft failure after kidney transplant.
This is a sample calculator to show how the lung Composite Allocation Score (lung CAS) is established. It uses the same formula that is used for the lung allocation policy that took effect March 9, 2023.
The model for end-stage liver disease (MELD) calculator is used for liver allocation for adult transplant candidates.
The pediatric end-stage liver disease (PELD) calculator is used for liver allocation for pediatric transplant candidates.
