Abstract

Using Arcgis Server for organ allocation optimization in France
Track: Public Health
Authors: Florian Bayer

In France, organ allocation is handled by the Agence de la biom�decine, a public health organisation. In a context of scarcity, geographical optimization of organ allocation is a sensitive issue.
A web application using Arcgis Server has been developed to support and improve the decision making process for patients not taken into account by allocation score. Considering the recipients� health condition, the distance to the organ donor and the transportation, what is the best allocation option?
