Outcomes of COVID-19 in SOT recipientsThe International Database on Organ donation and Transplantation – COVID19 (IDOTCOVID) has been designed. The present database tries to exhaustively collect the demographic, clinical, analytical and therapeutic data that of SOT recipients with COVID-19 and, afterwards, to extrapolate large-scale conclusions to provide reliable information and, more importantly, to guide in a solid way the future management of this population.

Machine Learning decision supportA major goal of the IDOTCOVID is to develop a decision aiding tool towards the treatment of these patients. Optimal management of treatment alternatives and adjustment of immunosuppression shall be crucial to impovement of the current result of COVID-19 infection in SOT.
A Machine Learning algorithm will be developed once the first cases are introduced. Once trained, as soon as a physicians enters patient data at Hospital Admission, the algorithm will provide information regarding expected outcomes according to the different treatment alternatives available, aiding the clinician on their decision. |
Core characteristics of the database
The IDOTCOVID is an open-acess, live, international database accessible to all collaborating centers. The main objective is to provide real-time aiding towards clinical decision making. In addition, recorded data may be used for research purposes.
Local Site RegistryCollaborating centers can export their own data introduced into a friendly excel format. Hence, may use IDOTCOVID as their personal registry.
|
Societies RegistryAgreements with national and international Societies/Associations may be established, enabling IDOTCOVID to be used as coorporate registry.
|
ResearchIDOTCOVID intends to serve as the foundations towards clinical and translational studies on COVID-19 and SOT: Data regarding storage of biological samples is also available.
|
International Collaboration
The main effort of IDOTCOVID is to provide a global worldwide perspective regarding the influence of COVID-19 on SOT, both on donation activity as well as on transplant outcomes.
This effort can only be accomplished by an International altruistic collaboration, with data entry by each center. |
