Donor status under investigation?

edited 2010 07 in Social Groups
Donor Number: 1386
Donor Status: UNDER INVESTIGATION: A report of a medical problem in one of the offspring has been reported. Collection of medical records and waiting for possible testing results are currently in progress. An evaluation by the Medical Geneticist is ongoing. No final decision has been made as to future risk to other offspring from this donor.

Should we be concerned at this point?

    There are certain circumstances where we do not contact clients with updates. We do not contact clients about ongoing investigations. For a donor in investigation we want to resolve the outstanding questions, verify the medical information and discuss the outcome with our geneticists.

    Medical Updates provided by CLI offer the added advantage that they are verified. We can confirm client information, review donor records and provide you accurate information right from the source.

    If an increased risk does indeed exist, the donor will be restricted for medical cause. It is when a donor is restricted for medical cause that we will now notify clients through their doctor of record. We will also post medical restrictions on this forum for more convenience and faster updates.

    CLI investigates all reports of medical issues of offspring from our donors. The report that was made by a patient of donor 1386 was determined by our Certified Genetic Counselor not to be an issue involving the donor. Donor 1386 has been cleared of the investigation status.

    CLI hopes that this forum is a convenient place for you to receive medical updates of your donor. Please let us know if you have any additional questions or concerns.
