The Scottish National Blood Transfusion Service became the preferred provider of tissues in 2000. At that time, the only tissues procured were heart valves and some tendons from multiorgan donors. These sources and the range of tissues were not enough to provide for the clinical needs of Scottish patients. A systematic review was undertaken using the International Classification of Disease codes to assess what the potential pool of tissue donors would be by region, hospital and hospital department. Such data would enable us to focus our limited resources to maximize the yield of tissues to meet clinical demand. The data from this study were validated by a case-note audit in one hospital in Edinburgh. It was shown that the maximum tissue donor potential of approximately 48.5 per million population was in the central belt of Scotland in hospitals with large emergency medicine departments.
苏格兰国家血液服务中心于 2000 年成为首选的组织提供者。当时，仅采购了来自多器官供体的心脏瓣膜和一些肌腱。这些来源和组织范围不足以满足苏格兰患者的临床需求。我们使用国际疾病分类代码进行了系统审查，以按地区、医院和医院科室评估潜在的组织供体人数。此类数据将使我们能够集中使用有限的资源，以最大限度地提高组织产量，满足临床需求。这项研究的数据通过在爱丁堡的一家医院进行病例记录审核得到了验证。结果表明，苏格兰中部地区拥有大型急诊医学部门的医院的潜在最大组织供体人数约为每百万人 48.5 人。
