The National Transplant Center presents the 2009 report
were 3164 patients transplanted in 2009 against 2932 in 2008, for a percentage increase of solid organs, tissues and cells equal to 10.5%. This is the first positive figure that we can extrapolate from the data contained in the 2009 Report of the National Transplant Center presented at the conference Wide held in Rome on 4 and 5 February 2009. After a slight decline observed in the last two years, the data recorded in 2009 revived the transplant network and the Italian National Transplant Centre's activities that, just over the past year, celebrated the tenth anniversary of the enactment of Law 91 / 99, which formalized the current transplant network established by the Italian and CNT. Potential donors reported by the ICU in 2009 were 2326 against 2298 in 2008 with an overall percentage increase of 1% .2. Donors used 1167 in 2009 (compared to 1094 of 2008) with an absolute percentage increase of 6.7%. An important positive result recorded in 2009 is related to the opposition: the percentage of opposition in the past year stood at 30.3% against 32.6% in 2008. The reduction of the opposition registered in 2009, after two years of increase is the result of the success of a campaign of information promoted by CNT: from September 2008 was initiated a program of survey interviews conducted with families of potential donors based on A questionnaire distributed to all resuscitations. The data from this survey are being prepared, but he had administered the questionnaire to the ICU right now instead physicians faced with a more careful reflection on the ways and times of communication with the family that has resulted in a reduction in the number of objections. As regards, however, data aggregations Interregional 3, the NIT area (including Lombardy, Veneto, Liguria, Friuli Venezia Giulia, Prov.aut. Trento and Marche) in 2009 recorded 778 donors reported compared to 679 in 2008 , 459 donors procured in 2009 compared to 525 in 2008, 423 effective donors in 2009 compared with 497 in 2008. The area AIRT (including Piedmont, Valle D'Aosta, Toscana, Emilia Romagna, Prov.aut. Bolzano and Puglia) had reported 854 donors in 2009 against 831 in 2008, 424 donors procured in 2009 compared to 469 of 2008, 456 effective donors in 2009 compared to 457 in 2008. The area OCST (including Lazio, Basilicata, Campania, Abruzzo, Molise, Calabria, Umbria, Sicily and Sardinia) has reported 694 donors in 2009 compared to 788 in 2008, 342 donors procured in 2009 compared to 364 in 2008, 310 donors Effective in 2009 compared to 370 last year. In Italy the total number of patients in the list attests in 2009 amounted to 9331 with 164 patients waiting more than an organ, in 6808 for a kidney transplant with an average time of waiting list equal to 2.97 years, 1447 for a liver transplant at a mean time of waiting list equal to 2.06 years, 702 for a heart transplant with an average waiting time listings equal to 2.47 years, 226 for a pancreas transplant with an average waiting time equal to 3.06 years, 312 for a lung transplant with an average waiting time equal to 1.90 years. Over the years the system of waiting lists has remained substantially in balance and in line with that of major European countries. Despite the increase in donations in recent years, the number of patients on the waiting list continues to demonstrate how the transplant network, the National Transplant Centre and the whole of society must continue to work hard to promote the culture of donation in order to satisfy as many requests as possible.
