Transplant nursing is the delivery of specialized nursing care
focused on protecting, promoting, and optimizing the health and
abilities of both the transplant recipient and the living donor
across the life span. Patient care includes prevention, detection,

solid organ transplantation and to diseases that may result from
living donation. Transplant nursing also addresses the prevention
of further disease and the promotion of optimal health and
well-being of organ recipients and donors. ANA and the
International Transplant Nurses Society convened a workgroup of
transplant nurse experts from to update and expand the 2008 edition
to accommodate ongoing and anticipated changes in their specialty
and in health care. With input from numerous nurses, they developed
this revised edition. It is a comprehensive delineation of the

levels and settings. The publication's scope of practice addresses
what is expected of all transplant nurses, specifying the who,

those directly involved with transplant nursing practice,
education, and research, other nurses and allied healthcare
