National Living Donor Registry

The National Living Donor Registry is a secure database that tracks individuals who donate organs or tissues while alive, such as a kidney or part of their liver. Its purpose is to ensure donor safety, facilitate follow-up care, and promote transparency. By collecting information on donors, the registry helps healthcare providers monitor health outcomes, prevent misuse or fraud, and support ongoing research to improve living donation procedures. This system ultimately aims to protect donors' well-being while increasing the availability of organs for patients in need.
