The CHU de Toulouse is celebrating World Organ Donation and Transplant Day, observed on October 17th, by highlighting its teams involved in coordinating the journey from donation to life after transplantation. The institution also announces the establishment of its new Federation for Transplantation and Organ Procurement (FTPO).
Established in 2026, the FTPO consolidates the medical, surgical, and nursing expertise of the CHU de Toulouse. Its objectives include enhancing team coordination, improving patient care pathways, and advancing training, research, and innovation in transplantation.
Working closely with transplant patients and their associations, the federation is committed to progress in these critical areas. The CHU de Toulouse expresses its gratitude to everyone involved.
The key message for the day is that organ donation can save lives, and it is important to discuss it openly with loved ones.
