5. Why
Number of patients awaiting transplants
Number with potential live donors
Complications for live donors
6. Types
Donation after brain death - DBD
Donation after cardiac death - DCD
7. Identification of potential donors
Early confirmation of the brain death
consent
Prompt notification of the retrieval team
Careful and intensive management of the donor
Rapid retrieval of the organs
8. Who is a deceased donor:
An individual is considered dead if:
1.irreversible cessation of circulatory and respiratory function
or
2.irreversible cessation of all functions of the entire brain,
including the brain stem.
