Allocation
The process of determining how organs are distributed. Allocation includes the system of policies and guidelines which ensure that organs are distributed in an equitable, ethical and medically sound manner.
Allograft
An allograft is a transplant of an organ or tissue that comes from another person of the same species.
Aneurysm
An aneurysm or aneurism is a ballooning or weakened area in the wall of a blood vessel. As it increases in size, the risk of rupture increases, which can lead to internal bleeding and death.
Anti-Rejection Medicine (immunosuppressive drugs)
Medicines that reduce or prevent the body’s ability to reject a transplanted organ or tissue.
Antibody
A protein substance made by the body’s immune system to attack a foreign substance, for example, a blood transfusion, virus or pregnancy. Because antibodies attack transplanted organs, transplant patients must take powerful drugs to reduce the body’s attack on the transplanted organ. See anti-rejection medicine.
Antigen
A foreign substance, such as a transplanted organ or tissue, that triggers the body to reject it (destroy it.)
Blood Vessels
The arteries, veins, and capillaries through which blood circulates. Blood vessels can be donated and transplanted.
Bone
Dense tissue that forms the skeleton and supports the body. Bone can be donated and transplanted.
Bone Marrow
A thick liquid substance is found in the body’s hollow bones, such as leg, arm, and hip bones. Marrow consists of cells that develop into blood cells (platelets, red blood cells, and white blood cells). Marrow for transplant is usually collected from the pelvic bone.
Brain Death
Brain death occurs when the brain is totally and irreversibly non-functional. Brain death is caused by not enough blood supply of oxygen which causes the brain cells to die.
Cadaveric Donors
Also called non-living or deceased donors (preferred term), are those who donate their organs or tissue after they have died.
Circulatory Death
Occurs when a person’s heart stops and cannot be resuscitated. Just like brain death, there is no recovery from circulatory death (also known as cardiac death).
Cold Ischemia Time
The time an organ is without blood circulation and is kept cold—from the time the organ is removed from the donor to the time it is transplanted into the recipient. In surgery, the time between the chilling of a tissue, organ, or body part after its blood supply has been reduced or cut off and the time it is warmed by having its blood supply restored. This can occur while the organ is still in the body or after it is removed from the body if the organ is to be used for transplantation.
Connective Tissue
Forms the supportive and connective structures of the body, such as tendons, ligaments cartilage, bone and fascia (the silver-colored covering of muscles). Connective tissue surrounds many organs.
Cornea
The transparent outer covering of the eye’s iris and pupil. Corneas can be donated and transplanted to restore sight for people with damaged corneas.
Cornea Transplant Questions
Are cornea transplants usually successful?
. Most cornea transplants are successful and will work without complications for at least 10 years.
Do you need a donor for corneal transplant?
There is no substitute for human tissue. The transplantation process depends upon the priceless gift of corneal donation from one human to another.
What is the lifeow
How Long Does a Corneal Transplant Last
A corneal transplant can last 10 years or more without complications. However, it is still important to have regular check-ups to ensure your vision and eye health remain in good condition. In some cases, patients are able to enjoy the results of their corneal transplant as long as 20 years or longer.Jan 25, 2022
What are the risks of corneal transplantation?
- Bleeding in the eye, Cataracts.Detachment of the new cornea.Eye inflammation.Refractive errors requiring glasses or contact lenses,New onset worsening of glaucoma, Infection inside the eye (endophthalmitis), Infections on the surface of the eye (corneal ulcer) What is the Procedure On the day of your cornea transplant, you’ll be given a medicine to help you feel calm or less anxious or a medicine that numbs your eye. Either way, you shouldn’t feel pain. Surgery is done on one eye at a time. The amount of time spent in surgery depends on your situation What is the age limit for a corneal transplant?
- Donor age as an indicator of quality of donor cornea remains a topic of debate. There is no standard upper or lower age limit in countries such as India, Israel, the United Kingdom, and United States, though some eye banks have historically had upper age limits of 65 years.Jul 28, 2024
How soon can I drive after a corneal transplant?
You can’t drive on the day of your cornea transplant. Someone needs to drive you home after surgery and bring you back for your follow-up visit. If you have good vision in the non-transplant eye, you can legally drive 24 hours after surgery.
Will I still need glasses after cornea transplant?
Often eye doctors will prescribe eyeglasses during this in-between period to help one’s vision, and even after the eye has fully healed, prescription glasses may still be required. However, cornea transplants also tend to result in irregular corneas as the transplant can’t adapt fully to the eye.
Does Canada cover cornea transplants?
Canada does cover the cost of corneal transplants for people with keratoconus after they have become legally blind.
Cornea Transplant Operation(Sample, may not apply to all operations)
A cornea transplant is a surgical procedure that replaces a damaged part of the cornea with a healthy donor cornea to improve or restore vision. The procedure is performed in a hospital or day surgery center and usually takes less than an hour.
Here are some steps involved in a cornea transplant:
- Pre-admissionYou’ll have blood tests, skin swabs, and possibly an electrocardiogram (ECG) and chest x-ray. A nurse will review your health history and provide information on how to prepare for surgery.
- SurgeryYou’ll receive medicine to relax you, and local anesthetic will be injected around your eye. The surgeon will remove a disc-shaped piece of your cornea and replace it with the donor cornea. The new cornea is held in place with stitches.
- RecoveryYou’ll likely be able to go home the same day or the day after. You’ll need to wear an eye shield, avoid rubbing your eye, and avoid heavy lifting for about four weeks. You should also avoid swimming, hot tubs, gardening, and dusting for two to four weeks.
- Follow-upYour healthcare team will arrange for you to return to the clinic regularly to check the transplant’s healing and for signs of rejection.
Corneal transplants have an overall success rate of over 90% after one year and 74% after five years. However, other eye problems can limit vision quality, and some people may need more than one transplant.
Cross-Matching
A blood test is performed before a transplant to find out if the specific donor organ to be transplanted is likely to be rejected by the prospective recipient. If the test is positive, the donor and recipient are “incompatible” and the transplant is unlikely to be performed with an organ from that donor.
Cyclosporine
A medicine that suppresses the body’s immune response thereby preventing organ rejection.
Cystic Fibrosis Foundation Canada
Link
Deceased Donor
A person who has been declared dead and whose organs and/or tissues have been donated for transplantation.
Designated Requestor
Defined in the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Conditions of Participation as an individual who has completed a course offered or approved by the OPO and designed in conjunction with the tissue and eye bank community in the methodology for approaching potential donor families and requesting organ donation. The interpretation of this rule allows for some degree of flexibility.
Donation
The act of giving an organ(s), tissue(s), or blood to someone else without compensation.

Dialysis
A mechanical process designed to remove toxic substances from the blood, including correcting the balance of fluids and chemicals in the body and removing wastes when the kidneys are unable to do so. See hemodialysis and peritoneal dialysis.
. Dialysis at Home
Dialysis is available for at-home use in Canada.
Donor Registries
A confidential electronic database in which individuals can enter and store their wish to be an organ and tissue donor. Most registries are for a province, but a few serve more than one state. Most registries have enrollment capacity through the motor vehicle offices and many also have online registry portals. Because registry information is accessible on a 24/7 basis to authorized procurement personnel, it is the safest and quickest way to determine if a deceased individual wanted to be a donor
End-Stage Organ Disease
A disease that leads, ultimately, to permanent, complete failure of an organ to function. Some examples are emphysema (lungs), cardiomyopathy (heart), and polycystic kidney disease (kidneys).
End-Stage Renal Disease (ESRD)
The complete or almost complete failure of the kidneys to function. The kidneys can no longer remove wastes, concentrate urine, and regulate many other important body functions.
Genetic Disorder
A disease or disorder related to heredity, birth or origin.
Graft
A transplanted organ or tissue.
Graft Survival
The length of time an organ functions successfully after being transplanted.
Heart
A muscular organ that pumps blood through the body. The heart can be donated and transplanted.
Heart Valves
Prevent the back flow or leakage of blood as it is being pumped through the chambers inside of the heart. Heart valves can be donated and transplanted
. Hemodialysis
A treatment for kidney failure in which the patient’s blood is passed through a filtering membrane to remove excess fluid and waste.
Histocompatibility
The examination or testing of antigens to determine if a donor organ will “match” and be compatible with a potential recipient’s system. This routine test is often called tissue-typing and helps identify the most suitable recipient for a donated organ.
Human Leukocyte Antigens (HLA)
A genetically determined series of markers (molecules) located on human white blood cells (leukocytes) and on tissues that are inherited from both biological parents. HLA matching is important for compatibility between donor and recipient.
Idiopathic
Relating to an organ being damaged or destroyed by a disease or condition of unknown origin.
Immune Response
The body’s natural defense against foreign objects or organisms that invade the body, such as bacteria or transplanted organs.
Immunosuppressive Drugs
Chemical agents cause the human body not to produce antibodies that normally fight off foreign material in the body. The production of these antibodies needs to be suppressed in order to permit the acceptance of a donor organ by the recipient’s body.
Informed Consent
The process of reaching a voluntary agreement is based on full disclosure and full understanding of what will take place. Informed consent often refers to the process of making decisions regarding participation in research as well as undergoing medical procedures, including the decision to donate the organs of a loved one.
Intestines
The portion of the digestive tract extending from the stomach to the anus, consisting of the stomach, the upper segment (small intestine), and the lower segment (large intestine.) Intestines can be donated and transplanted.
Kidneys
A pair of organs that maintain proper water and electrolyte balance, regulate acid-base concentration and filter metabolic waste which is excreted as urine. Kidneys can be donated by deceased and living donors to be transplanted.
Ligaments
Fibrous bands or sheets link two or more bones, cartilages, or structures together. Ligaments provide stability during rest and movement and protect against excessive movements such as hyper-extension or hyper-flexion. Ligaments can be transplanted. See Connective Tissue.
Liver
A large reddish-brown organ that secretes bile and is active in the formation of certain blood proteins and in the metabolism of carbohydrates, fats, and proteins. The liver, like the kidneys, assists in the removal of waste and toxins from the blood stream. The liver can be donated by deceased donors, and a liver lobe (section) can be provided by a living donor to be transplanted. The donor’s liver will grow to full size, and the transplanted lobe will too.
Living Donor
A person who donates an organ or tissue while alive.

Lung Manual
https://www.uhn.ca/Transplant/Living_Donor_Program/Documents/living_liver_donor_manual.pdf
Lungs
The organs that enable breathing to take place, providing life-sustaining oxygen to the body and its organs. Air is inhaled into the lungs and oxygen in the air is exchanged for carbon dioxide that is then exhaled. The exchange happens in the blood as it circulates through the sponge-like lung tissue. The lungs can be donated and transplanted, and a lung lobe can be donated by a living donor
Lung Foundation of Canada
Match
The degree of compatibility or likeness between a donor and a recipient.
Metabolic Disorder
A condition or disease related to dysfunction in the chemical processes and activities of the body (i.e., metabolism).
Organ
A part of the body made up of various tissues, which performs a particular function. Transplantable organs are the heart, intestines, liver, lungs, kidneys, and pancreas.
Organ Donation
Giving an organ or a part of an organ to be transplanted into another person. Organ donation can occur with a deceased donor, who can give kidneys, pancreas, liver, lungs, heart, intestinal organs, and with a living donor, who can give a kidney or a portion of the liver, lung, or intestine.
Organ Preservation
Methods used to maintain the quality of organs between removal from the donor and transplantation into the recipient. These methods include preservation solutions, pumps, and cold storage. Preservation times can vary from 2 to 48 hours depending on the type of organ being preserved.
Pancreas
The long, irregularly shaped gland that lies behind the stomach. Some glands in the pancreas secrete insulin. Pancreas transplants give patients with diabetes a chance to become independent of insulin injections. In addition to insulin, the pancreas secretes digestive enzymes (into the small intestine) that aid in the digestion of proteins, carbohydrates, and fats.
Peritoneal Dialysis
A process of filtering waste using the peritoneal membrane inside the abdomen. The abdomen is filled with special solutions that help remove toxins. The solutions remain in the abdomen for a time and then are drained out. This form of dialysis can be performed at home but must be done every day.
Peripheral blood stem cells (PBSC)
Peripheral blood stem cells are the cells that make their way from the bone marrow to the circulating blood. Learn more about donating bone marrow or PBSC.
Procurement
The surgical procedure of removing an organ, corneas or other tissue(s) from a donor. See Recovery.
Procurement Coordinator
Typically a nurse, paramedic or another medically trained individual who is responsible for evaluating potential donors, discussing donation with family members, medically managing the donor prior to the recovery of organs and tissues, and arranging for the donation process (removal and transport of donated organs).
Recipient
In the context of organ and tissue transplantation, this is the patient receiving the donated organ or tissue.
Recovery
In the context of organ and tissue transplantation, it refers to the process of removing organs and tissues from the donor.
Rejection (Acute and Chronic)
The body’s way of protecting itself against a foreign invader such as infectious germs. The body sees the transplanted organ or tissue as a foreign invader and attempts to destroy it. Acute rejection happens very quickly; chronic rejection is the slow failure of a donated organ to function.
Religious Views on Organ Donation.
Most major religions support donation for transplantation, and it is generally held that donation for the benefit of others is a demonstration of faith and love for one’s fellow man. Anyone with questions about their faith’s position on donation should consult with their clergy or spiritual adviser.
Required Request
A law passed in 1986 requiring hospitals to have a policy in place requiring all families of suitable donors to be asked to give consent to their loved one’s organs and tissues to be used for transplant. This law is expected to increase the number of donated organs and tissues for transplantation by giving more people the opportunity to donate.
Requester
A healthcare professional who discusses organ donation with surviving family members of a potential donor in order to obtain their consent for donation to occur.
Skin
This is the largest organ of the body and has several different functions (e.g., protection from infection, fluid balance, cooling). Skin grafts can save the life a burn victim and can provide severely scarred individuals with a better quality of life.
Status
In the context of transplantation, an indication of the degree of medical urgency for patients awaiting heart or liver transplants.
Tendon
A tough, flexible band of fibrous tissue that connects muscles to bones. The skeletal muscles move the bones for walking, jumping, lifting, etc. by contracting and pulling the bones. The tendon attaches to the muscle and bone and transmits the force of muscle contraction to the bone. Tendons can be transplanted. See Connective Tissue.
Tissue
A body part consisting of similar cells that perform a special function. Examples of tissues that can be transplanted are bones, corneas, heart valves, ligaments, veins, and tendons.
Tissue Typing
A procedure in which the tissues of a prospective donor and recipient are tested to identify the human leukocyte antigens.

Transplantation between genetically different members of the same species (not identical twins).
Transplantation, Autologous
Receiving a transplant of one’s own cell or tissues. This type of transplantation can be used to repair or replace damaged tissue. For example, autologous bone marrow transplantation permits the use of strong cancer therapies that can damage bone marrow. Bone marrow is removed prior to treatment and once the treatment is completed marrow that has not been affected by the therapy is transplanted back into the patient.
Transplant Coordinator
A transplant center staff member is responsible for managing the care and progress of potential transplant recipients before, during, and after the transplantation.
Transplant Recipient
A person who has received a tissue or organ transplant.
Vascularized Composite Allograft (VCA)
A transplant that is composed of several kinds of tissue such as skin, bone, muscles, blood vessels, nerves, and connective tissue, VCAs include hand, arm, or face transplants.
- Vascularized: containing blood vessels or other fluid-bearing vessels or ducts.
- Composite: made up of various parts or elements.
- Allograft: a transplanted organ or tissue from one individual to another of the same species with a different genotype. For example, a transplant from one person to another, but not an identical twin, is an allograft.

1. Is my wallet card good enough to be considered a donor?
No, you may even lose your wallet or the card; you need to register with a provincial agency if they have a registration. You should also tell you family and friends of your wishes. By telling your friends, you are allowing them to support your family when the time comes and the support is most important. We lose a lot of organ donors due to lack of communication and support. You may also sign an End of Life Wishes form available to download right on this page.
2. Can anyone become an organ donor?
Yes, please register to become an organ donor, when the time comes to decide about your organs and tissue a qualified transplant team will make the decision. Also keep in mind, the ever changing technology in transplant medicine and we are not always aware of the miracles the doctors can perform.
3. If I register to be an organ donor do they take my organs now?
No, by registering to be an organ donor you are agreeing to share your organs and tissue when you no longer need them.
4. How do I register to be an organ donor?
Please go back to our homepage Click on the Register Button and then chose the province you live in and follow the instructions. It should take you about three minutes. If you have problems with the navigation please email us and we will be happy to help you.
5. Where can I download the End of Life Directive?
