Abstract

European rules stipulate quality and safety requirements on recruitment, testing, preserving, and distributing human tissues for application in patients in order to obtain a high level of health safety. In order to avoid transmissible diseases in tissue transplantation, specific requirements for all individual groups of tissues of human origin were defined. European Member States need to implement these directives in order to obtain a high level of health protection in human application. Precise instructions for tissue institutes regarding organization, management, documentation, and quality controls are required. Adverse effects have to be registered by these institutions. Costs need to be contained and therefore uniform administrative directives will engineer the modern techniques of communication. A uniform European code is needed for easy traceability of human tissues. The directive respects the basic human rights as laid down in the Charter of Fundamental Rights of the European Union.
