Pancreas and Pancreas Islets Transplant Candidate Registration (TCR) Field Descriptions

The Transplant Candidate Registration (TCR) record is generated when a candidate for transplant is added to the OPTN/UNOS waiting list.

If the candidate is already on the waiting list for a transplant, another TCR record will not be generated unless listed by a different center or for another organ type.

The TCR record must be completed within 90 days from the record generation date. See OPTN Policies for additional information. Use the search feature to locate specific policy information on Data Submission Requirements.

To correct information that is already displayed on an electronic record, call the UNetSM Help Desk at 1-800-978-4334.



Provider Information

Recipient Center: The Recipient Center information reported in Waitlist displays. Verify that the center information is the hospital where the transplant operation will be performed. The Provider Number is the 6-character Medicare identification number of the hospital. This is followed by the Center Code and Center Name.



Candidate Information

Organ Registered: Verify the organ(s) displayed is/are the organ(s) listed for this candidate. If the candidate is listed for more than one type of transplant, both organs should be displayed. Separate records exist for certain multi-organ transplant candidates (e.g. Heart/Lung and Kidney/Pancreas).

Date of Listing or Add: The date the candidate was listed or added in Waitlist will display.

Name: The waitlisted candidate's last name, first name and middle initial will be displayed. If it is incorrect, corrections must be completed on the active waitlist. For a candidate who has been removed from the waitlist, the Last Name, First Name and MI fields will display. Corrections may be made directly in the record. These fields are required.

Previous Surname: If the candidate had a previous surname that is different from the name entered, enter the previous surname.

SSN: Verify the candidate's social security number. If the information is incorrect and the candidate is waitlisted, contact the UNOS Organ Center at 1-800-292-9537.

Gender: Report candidate sex (Male or Female), based on biologic and physiologic traits at birth. If sex at birth is unknown, report sex at time of registration as reported by candidate or documented in medical record.

Height: Enter the height of the candidate at the time of listing in the appropriate space, in feet and inches or centimeters. If the candidate’s height is unavailable, select the appropriate status from the ST field (Missing, Unknown, N/A, Not Done). This field is required. (List of Status codes) For candidates 18 years old or younger at the time of listing, UNet will generate and display calculated percentiles based on the 2000 CDC growth charts.

Weight Date of Measurement:(Complete for candidates 18 years of age or younger.) Enter the date, using the 8-digit format of MM/DD/YYYY, the candidate’s weight was measured.

Weight: Enter the weight of the candidate at the time of listing in the appropriate space, in pounds or kilograms. If the candidate’s weight is unavailable, select the appropriate status from the ST field (Missing, Unknown, N/A, Not Done).  This field is required. (List of Status codes) For candidates 18 years old or younger at the time of listing, UNet will generate and display calculated percentiles based on the 2000 CDC growth charts.

BMI (Body Mass Index): The candidate's BMI will display. For candidates less than 20 years of age at the time of listing, UNet will generate and display calculated percentiles based on the 2000 CDC growth charts.

Percentiles are the most commonly used clinical indicator to assess the size and growth patterns of individual children in the United States. Percentiles rank the position of an individual by indicating what percent of the reference population the individual would equal or exceed (i.e. on the weight-for-age growth charts, a 5 year-old girl whose weight is at the 25th percentile, weighs the same or more than 25 percent of the reference population of 5-year-old girls, and weighs less than 75 percent of the 5-year-old girls in the reference population). For additional information about CDC growth charts, see http://www.cdc.gov/.

Note: Users who check the BMI percentiles against the CDC calculator may notice a discrepancy that is caused by the CDC calculator using 1 decimal place for height and weight and UNet using 4 decimal places for weight and 2 for height.

ABO Blood Group: The candidate's blood type will be displayed. If the blood type is incorrect, correction must be completed on the active waitlist. If the candidate has been removed from the active waitlist, you may select the candidate's correct blood type directly in the record. (List of ABO Blood Type codes)
