Organ donation after euthanasia is performed in Belgium, the Netherlands, Canada and Spain. Directed deceased organ donation is currently possible under strict conditions in a limited number of countr...
Partly because of a lack of governmental commitment in educational work, tissue donation is largely unknown in the German population, although it has an increasing relevance for patient care. Due to t...
Relevant publications were systematically searched in seven databases. The search command consisted of English and German terms for the two search components "tissue donation" and "health care system"...
Of 1,398 hits, seven were finally included after screening. Many of the remaining studies focused on organ donation or non-institutional aspects of tissue donation. Only two studies considered the cen...
The results indicate that institutional factors may influence people's willingness to donate. In particular, the lack of societal awareness of the issue results in various areas of tension for which r...
The avoidance of financial gain in the human body is an international ethical standard that underpins efforts to promote equity in donation and transplantation and to avoid the exploitation of vulnera...
The lack of information associated with donation is devastating for those patients in need of a transplant and requires a solution based on changing social perception through educational interventions...
Determine the level of knowledge of the general population after an educational intervention about organ and tissue donation at the Hospital de Cardiología UMAE No. 34....
Educational intervention study with measurement before and after, prospective. Instrument validated using the Kuder-Richardson formula with a reliability coefficient of 0.74. The study population was ...
266 evaluation instruments were applied to 133 participants. The educational intervention contributed to an increase in the level of knowledge (p = 0.0001). The level of knowledge after the interventi...
An educational intervention on donation of organs and tissues for transplant purposes is an effective strategy to increase and reinforce the knowledge of the general population....
As an expression of the general will, the law makes organ removal and transplantation a lawful activity. The legislator makes them conditional on the primacy of the person, the inviolability of the bo...
The process of capturing and classifying the viability of corneal tissue for corneal transplantation is complex. The biomicroscopic examination is one of the techniques used to evaluate the quality of...
This is a longitudinal, retrospective cohort study, performed at the Human Ocular Tissue Bank in the state of Rio Grande do Norte, Brazil. The sample consisted of 419 corneas donated between 2005 to 2...
After the evaluation, the 419 corneas were classified as excellent (8 -1.91%), good (217 - 51.79%), regular (85 - 20.29%), and bad (109 - 26.01%). The classification of corneal quality attributed by o...
The evaluation of the corneal quality for corneal transplantation should involve the implementation of reliable techniques and trained, qualified professionals. There is a need to create evaluation in...
Consent model and intent to donate registries are often the most public facing aspects of an organ and tissue donation and transplantation (OTDT) system. This article describes the output of an intern...
This Forum was initiated by Transplant Québec and cohosted by the Canadian Donation and Transplantation Program partnered with multiple national and international donation and transplantation organiza...
Eleven recommendations were generated and divided into 3 topic groupings: consent model, intent to donate registry structure, and consent model change management. The recommendations emphasized the ne...
We did not recommend one consent model as universally superior to others, although considerations of factors that contribute to the successful deployment of consent models were discussed in detail. We...
We aimed to facilitate the donation of tissue samples for research by establishing a centralized system integrated in the organ donation program for collection, storage, and distribution of samples (t...
Feasibility of a research biobank integrated within the deceased organ and tissue donation program was assessed. DonateLife Victoria sought consent for ADTB donation after consent was received for org...
Over 2 y, samples were collected for the ADTB from 69 donors (28% of 249 donors). Samples were obtained from the spleen (n = 59, 86%), colon (n = 57, 83%), ileum (n = 56, 82%), duodenum (n = 55, 80%),...
The integration of routine deceased donation and transplantation activities with a coordinated system for retrieval and allocation of donor samples for use in a range of research projects is feasible ...
Since non-directed (altruistic) kidney donors do not stand to benefit from the lengthening and strengthening of a relationship that they intrinsically value, their donations are considered to constitu...
This paper uses publicly-available data to assess the expected value that accrues to the donor of altruistic kidney donation....
Compared to healthy non-donors, living kidney donors experience only marginally increased absolute risks of poor physical health outcomes, and no difference in important psychosocial health outcomes. ...
Accordingly, the expected value of becoming a living kidney donor is likely to be positive, meaning the act of doing so may be considered akin to the taking out of an insurance policy. In the context ...
Organ, tissue, and cell donation and transplantation legislation and policies vary substantially worldwide, as do performance outcomes in various jurisdictions. Our objective was to create expert, con...
We identified topic areas and recommendations through consensus, using nominal group technique. The proposed framework was informed by narrative literature reviews and vetted by the project's scientif...
This report has 13 recommendations regarding critical aspects affecting the donation and use of human tissues and cells that need to be addressed internationally to protect donors and recipients. They...
The implementation of these recommendations, in total or in part, by legislators and governments would benefit tissue transplantation programs by ensuring access to safe, effective, and ethical tissue...
