- These SOPs aim to maximize the utilization of precious organs and offer hope to patients awaiting life-saving transplants.
- Key Highlights:
- Air Transport: Airlines carrying human organs can request priority take-off and landing from Air Traffic Control. They can also arrange front-row seats and priority reservations for medical personnel.
- Green Corridors: Defined routes free from obstructions will be established for quick transport from ambulances to aircraft and vice versa.
- One Trigger System: A request from the organ allocation authority will initiate the creation of green corridors to facilitate transport.
- These guidelines are designed to ensure that organs are transported efficiently and safely, thereby increasing the chances of successful transplants.
