Brazil and Argentina are two of the South American countries that perform the highest number of solid organ transplant procedures globally each year. These procedures are not exempt from risks for the recipient, and there is a risk of donor-derived infections. Risk mitigation measures for disease transmission from donor to recipient are essential, and biovigilance systems play a crucial role to inform authorities and provide data for the definition of screening procedures and prevention of donor-derived infections. We herein describe the biovigilance systems in Brazil and Argentina and provide some data regarding potential and effective donors.
巴西和阿根廷是每年全球进行数量最多的实体器官移植手术的南美国家之一。这些手术对受者并非没有风险,而且存在供体来源感染的风险。减少供体向受者传播疾病的风险措施至关重要,而生物监测系统在向当局提供信息和提供数据以确定筛查程序和预防供体来源感染方面发挥着关键作用。本文描述了巴西和阿根廷的生物监测系统,并提供了一些有关潜在和有效供者的数据。
