Management of Potential Organ Donor: Indian Society of Critical Care Medicine-Position Statement.

This position statement is documented based on the input from all contributing coauthors from the Indian Society of Critical Care Medicine (ISCCM), following a comprehensive literature review and summary of current scientific evidence. Its objective is to provide the standard perspective for the management of potential organ/tissue donors after brain death (BD) in adults only, regardless of the availability of technology. This document should only be used for guidance only and is not a substitute for proper clinical decision making in particular circumstances of any case. Endorsement by the ISCCM does not imply that the statements given in the document are applicable in all or in a particular case; however, they may provide guidance for the users thus facilitating maximum organ availability from brain-dead patients. Thus, the care of potential brain-dead organ donors is "caring for multiple recipients." Zirpe K, Pandit R, Gurav S, Mani RK, Prabhakar H, Clerk A,
