Also found at the docket is a
supporting document for reference, the
Evidence Report. The Evidence Report

data tables that were used by the
Guideline authors in developing the
recommendations in the Guideline.
The Draft Guideline is for use by

(OPOs); transplant centers, including
physicians, nurses, administrators, and
clinical coordinators; laboratory
personnel responsible for testing and
storing donor and recipient specimens;
and persons responsible for developing,
implementing, and evaluating infection
prevention and control programs for
OPOs and transplant centers. This Draft
Guideline provides evidence-based
recommendations for reducing
unexpected transmission of HIV, HBV
and HCV from deceased and living
organ donors.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Since
2008, CDC has collaborated with state
and federal agencies, national partners,
academicians, public and private health
professionals, the transplant field,
public health organizations, and other
partners to revise and expand the 1994
Guidelines for Preventing Transmission
of Human Immunodeficiency Virus
(HIV) through Transplantation of
Human Tissue and Organs (1994
Guideline). The 2011 Draft Guideline
updates the previous recommendations
for HIV, includes recommendations to
reduce disease transmission of HBV and
HCV, and addresses issues such as
donor risk assessment, donor screening,
HBV- and HCV-infected donors and
transplantation, recipient informed
consent, recipient screening, donor and
recipient specimen collection and
storage, and tracking and reporting of
HIV, HBV, and HCV. As with the 1994
Guideline, the recommendations
address adult and pediatric donors who
are living or deceased, as well as
transplant candidates and recipients. In
addition to summarizing current
scientific knowledge about solid organ
transplant safety, the 2011 Draft
Guideline also identifies important gaps
in the literature where further research
is needed.
CDC worked with the University of
Pennsylvania’s Health System Center for
Evidence-based Practice (CEP) and
sought input in each phase of the Draft
Guideline’s development from subject
matter experts in HIV and hepatitis
through formation of a Guideline Expert
Panel to develop the new Draft
Guideline. CDC also formed a Guideline
Review Committee to provide feedback
on the Draft Guideline
recommendations. Members of the
Review Committee included
representatives from public health, the
regulatory arena, transplant infectious
disease experts, and other stakeholders.
This new Draft Guideline will not be a
federal rule or regulation.
