What is TRIP?

The Transplant Resource & Information Portal (TRIP) is a secure, password-protected web portal to provide parents, legal guardians, patients and physicians with instant access to medical information following transplant surgery at Children's Hospital of Pittsburgh of UPMC's Hillman Center for Pediatric Transplantation.

The portal enables the tracking of lab results, medications, forms, and other information to make the journey through the transplant process easier for patients and families.

TRIP can be accessed by parents and legal guardians as well as other physicians involved in a patient's care.
