DTI Foundation participated in the 2026 meeting of organ and tissue transplant coordinators of Catalonia, organized by the Catalan Transplant Organization (OCATT) and held in Barcelona.

The meeting brought together professionals from the Catalan donation and transplantation system to address key clinical and organizational aspects, as well as to share experiences and review recent activity.

The programme included several roundtable discussions focused on:

  • updates in organ donation
  • donation outside the hospital setting
  • family interviews and refusals
  • updates on substances of human origin (SoHO)
  • new biovigilance tools (SNISP)
  • limits in kidney donation

Sessions included transplant coordinators and specialists from leading hospitals such as Hospital Clínic de Barcelona, Vall d’Hebron, Hospital de Bellvitge, Hospital de Sant Pau, Hospital del Mar, Germans Trias i Pujol, Arnau de Vilanova (Lleida) and Hospital Josep Trueta (Girona), among others.

Beyond the technical content, the meeting highlighted the role of transplant coordinators and the teams involved in the donation process. These professionals work in complex clinical environments, where coordination, decision-making and communication are essential to ensure the system operates effectively.

Their work is fundamental to maintaining the continuity, quality and effectiveness of donation and transplantation programmes.

DTI Foundation continues to engage in these types of forums, focused on knowledge exchange and the continuous improvement of donation and transplantation systems.
