Guidelines

Prepare for usage

The Delores app allows you see a relative position at select centers registered with the Scientific Registry of Transplant Patients (SRTR) by comparing patient conditions to unanimous hospital metrics. As a consultation tool Delores aids patients in finding their ideal center, leading to decreased wait times and increased success rates. 

Each Delores app is specialized for the medical regulations of its respective organ. Follow the guidelines provided for each organ below to create the optimal Delores experience.
