Before donation, deceased organ donors are screened for blood-borne viruses. Recent infections may not always be detected. This video assists users in estimating the residual risk of undetected blood-borne virus infections in deceased organ donors who engage in increased viral risk behaviours. The tool uses the Quarantine Adjusted Window Period to estimate the Residual Risk of undetected infection. The tool is capable of generating a bespoke risk estimate for the individual donor based on the tool, and also generate a patient handout.
