China's computerized organ-allocation system was used successfully for the first time in Beijing on Tuesday, as donated organs from a 47-year-old man were transplanted into three patients.
The donor died on Dec 7 from a cerebral hemorrhage in a suburban Beijing hospital.
The donated organs were the liver and both kidneys, all going to patients waiting for transplants at Peking University People's Hospital.
"The transplant surgeries were successful, and the three recipients are in good condition," said Zhu Jiye, director of the liver and gallbladder surgical department of the hospital, which participated in the transplant surgery.
The liver recipient is a man from the Xinjiang Uygur autonomous region who was suffering from liver failure.
"The organ-allocation system showed he was the person who most needed the organ. If he hadn't received the liver, he could not have lived for more than seven days," Zhu told China Daily.
It is the first time in Beijing that donated organs were allocated by the China Organ Transplant Response System and transplanted to patients in need, according to a hospital news release. Previously, the system was more like a hospital-based organ allocation.
The China Organ Transplant Response System is a nationwide computer-based organ allocation system that aims to fairly distribute the organs of a donor after death. The system began earlier this year, and some donated organs already have been transplanted to patients in other cities.
Zhu said the donated organs went to three patients in his hospital because "the system allocated the organs according to priority of location, the degree of emergency and the degree to which the organs match the patients."
Currently, 300,000 to 500,000 people in China are waiting for kidney transplants, Zhu said.
