Some specialists and patient representatives say that if our country was a full member of Eurotransplant and had a partnership agreement with the non-governmental organization, Călin Farcas, the man of 29 years who died waiting for a lung transplant, could have had a chance to live.
"Eurotransplant ensures fairness, we are not very young donors, we do not meet their requirements, and beyond that, they are more because countries have a culture in this sense. without exchange can not do much.The organ abroad goes to the compatible patient, can be Romanian or from another country.The fact is that Eurotransplant does not talk about favoritism. But those of us do not want to be coordinated by a neutral NGO but want to have their power.Through Eurotransplant, the allocation of organs is strictly medical.There is what is not in this area now: transparency, "says Cezar Irimia, president of the Association of Chronic Patients in Romania (APCR)," Adevărul "
Specialist:" Eurotransplant does not want to take us "[19659004] Although & # 39, it has reached an agreement with Eurotransplant, Romania has managed to send only they lungs to the Eurotransplant Member States a month ago, as admitted Health Minister Sorina Pintea, who said that our country has not met its obligations under the agreement signed by the former head of health, Florian Bodog, in 2017.
"If we enter Eurotransplant, all that is harvested in our country is transplanted to us. If we do not have a receptor, this organ is offered to Eurotransplant. Lists wait for the country and the bodies are compensated. For example, we send 10 hearts, they send 10 kidneys. It's a very complex system, but Eurotransplant does not want to take us. For several reasons: We do not have enough donors, we do not have clear allocation rules, we do not have dedicated specialists. Unfortunately, the thinking hollow about us is that we do not need Eurotransplant and their simple rules. And precisely because of the lack of transparency and hunting, we have 3.5 donors per million inhabitants, "said Adevărul, specialist in transplantation.
Hungary, which signed a partnership agreement with the Non-governmental organization, is much developed after the signing of such a document.The neighboring country currently has 15 donors per million inhabitants, one of the conditions to be part of the NGO is to have at least 10 donors per million inhabitants, a criterion that Romania does not currently meet, but that was close enough in 2013 when it has 7 donors per million of 39, inhabitants.
"A partnership agreement would be a good start, then work in all accredited hospitals to identify donors, be criteria for clear allocation of organs, compatibility. It is more correct with unique lists, it would be exactly according to priorities, depending on the severity of the disease, "say the experts.
ANT:" It would be a disaster for us "
D & # On the other hand, ANT officials say that as a full member of Eurotransplant would mean a service to patients. "This would be a disaster for us. In recent years, because of the drastic reduction of organs, each country has started to keep the teeth of organs removed. No country gives you organs. In this world the organs are priceless, what you pay for the procedure. Why do not we do a transplant for a cost, although the law allows it? Eurotransplant is not a solution for Romania, "said ANT officials.
Academician Ioanel Sinescu, director of the Kidney Transplant Center at the Fundeni Clinical Institute , explained that Romania is not ready to become a member of Eurotransplant. "Countries that are in Eurotransplant use common allocation criteria, must have similar scientific parameters to join such an organization . And we do not have it. Therefore, we will lose because the organs would go there. Until we are compatible with them, we will be losers. There would be a unique waiting list for each organ for each organ. In the end, these organs could also come here. Lung of Calin Farcas, 29, Brasov, who needed a lung transplant
A young man of Vrancea needs a graft
To survive, Ionut Anghel de Marasesti has also been deeply touched by a 31-year-old IT-ist who is also suffering from a serious lung disease
Just like Călin, the young man from Marasesti needs a lung transplant and has until ### 39, now managed to raise more than 20,000 euros in donations. The young man from Vrancea was in contact with Călin Farcaş
The Ionut disease has worsened since the end of last year and the only cure is a lung transplant, a medical intervention costing between 150,000 and 200,000 euros. An exorbitant price, which he should pay, in the hope of seeing his child grow up.
Ionut said that there should be an increase of funds for the 1,000,000 euros for Facebook to make a part of Eurotransplant, so that Romanian patients have a chance to live.
