Previous research has established that organ procurement professionals who talk with families about donation have strong personal preferences concerning the donation of specific organs and tissues. This study examines possible reasons for such preferences and compares them with those of hospital personnel who talk with families about donation. The findings suggest that preferences among procurement personnel closely resemble those of hospital personnel, but procurement professionals' reasons reflect a slightly higher rate of self-interest. Aversions among procurement personnel differ from those of hospital personnel. Procurement personnel have fewer aversions to donating eyes and skin and more aversions to bone, and their aversions are more likely to reflect professional experience with particular donations. The findings suggest the need for changes both in the way donation options are offered to families and the way hospital and procurement personnel are educated.

Donor-recipient ABO and/or HLA incompatibility used to lead to donor decline. Development of alternative transplantation programs enabled transplantation of incompatible couples. How did that influence couple characteristics? Between 2000 and 2014, 1232 living donor transplantations have been performed. In conventional and ABO-incompatible transplantation the willing donor becomes an actual donor for the intended recipient. In kidney-exchange and domino-donation the donor donates indirectly to the intended recipient. The relationship between the donor and intended recipient was studied. There were 935 conventional and 297 alternative program transplantations. There were 66 ABO-incompatible, 68 domino-paired, 62 kidney-exchange, and 104 altruistic donor transplantations. Waiting list recipients (n=101) were excluded as they did not bring a living donor. 1131 couples remained of whom 196 participated in alternative programs.Genetically unrelateddonors (486) were primarily partners.Genetically relateddonors (645) were siblings, parents, children, and others. Compared to genetically related couples, almost three times as many genetically unrelated couples were incompatible and participated in alternative programs (P<0.001). 62% of couples were genetically related in the conventional donation program versus 32% in alternative programs (P<0.001). Patient and graft survival were not significantly different between recipient programs. Alternative donation programs increase the number of transplantations by enabling genetically unrelated donors to donate.

Aim: Although number of patients requiring organ and tissue transplantation is gradually increasing over time, number of organ donations is not sufficient to meet such requirement. This is due to gap in the knowledge regarding organ transplantation as well as individual or religious thoughts. Since some people avoid from organ donation because of their religious beliefs, religious officials play an important role in guiding such people by providing accurate information. In this study, it was aimed to determine perspectives on organ donation among religious officials. Methods: This descriptive study was conducted on 141 religious officials working in Yozgat province. A data sheet including sociodemographic characteristics such as age, gender, education level and a 20-item questionnaire about opinions on organ donation and transplantation were used for data collection. Results: Of participants, 62.4% reported that they have knowledge about organ donation; 54.6% reported that they learned from visual media; 64.5% reported that they do not know how to donate organ; and 72.3% reported that they wish to have knowledge about organ donation. Only 2.9% of participants were donors. Conclusion: Although level of knowledge was moderate in religious officials who have important role in organ donation, organ donation rate was comparable with general population. Keywords: Organ donation, organ transplantation, religious officials

Organ donation rate in India is very low when compared to many developed countries which contribute to the deaths due to organ failures every year. Kerala, one of the southern states in India with best health statistics in the country, has a deceased organ donation programme and has an organ donation rate higher than national average. However, there is a significant decline in number of donations in recent years.

Objectives: The aim of this study was to assess the knowledge, attitude and motivation toward stem cell donation among Saudi population in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. Methods: This is a cross-sectional study that was conducted at different malls in Riyadh. Selection of malls was done randomly according to the geographical distribution of Riyadh, in which sample size was calculated and distributed equally. The participants were asked to complete a questionnaire that addressed their knowledge, attitude and motivation toward stem cell transplantation and donation. Results: Results of this study showed that population knowledge about stem cell transplantation and donation is considered to be low. Only (37.8%) has enough information about stem cell transplantation and donation. There is a positive correlation between level of education and participant’s knowledge regarding stem cell transplantation and donation. The study revealed that 39.3% of participants have willingness for stem cell donation. Conclusion: It has been found that two third of population expressed lack of knowledge about stem cell transplantation and donation. Also, only 40% of participants showed willingness for donation, and the most common reason for not donating stem cell was the lack of information about stem cell and the value of donation While, increasing level of education was associated with better understanding of stem cell donation and its role in therapy and saving lives. Therefore, suitable campaign, advertising and counseling program for population is recommended to increase level of knowledge and motivation toward stem cell donation.

Aim. To carry out monitoring of the organization and development of organ donation and transplantation in the Russian Federation according to 2014. Materials and methods. Questioning of heads of all the centers of transplantation is carried out. The comparative analysis of the obtained data in dynamics of years, between certain regions of the Russian Federation, the transplantation centers, and also with data of the international registers is made. Results. According to the Register in 2014 in the Russian Federation functioned 36 centers of kidney transplantation, 14 centers of liver transplantation and 9 centers of heart transplantation. The waiting list of kidney transplantation in 2014 included 4636 potential recipients that makes 16% of total number of the patients 29 000 receiving dialysis. The rate of donor activity in 2014 made 3.2 per million population (pmp). Efficiency of donor programs in 2014 continued to increase: the share of effective donors after brain death in 2014 increased to 77.2%, the share of multiorgan explantation made 50.5%, average number of organs received from one effective donor made 2.6. In 2014 the rate of kidney transplantation made 7.0 pmp, the rate of liver transplantation made 2.1 pmp and the rate of heart transplantation made 1.1 pmp. In the Russian Federation the number of transplantations of liver and heart continues to increase. The significant contribution to development of the organ donation and transplantation brings the Moscow region in which 11 centers of transplantation function and nearly a half from all kidney transplantations and more than 65% of all liver and heart transplantations are carried out. Conclusion. In theRussian Federation the potential for further development of the transplantology remains. In particular, at the expense of increase in the efficiency of regional donation programs, introduction of technologies, expansion of the practices of multiorgan donation and transplantations of extrarenal organs, interregional transplant coordination. Preservation of volumes of public funding for transplantological medical care and federal financing of donation programs in regions are of great importance.

Aim. To carry out monitoring of the organization and tendencies in the development of organ donation and transplantation in the Russian Federation in 2016. Materials and methods. Questioning of the heads of all the centers of transplantation is carried out. The comparative analysis of the obtained data in dynamics of the years, between certain regions of the Russian Federation and transplantation centers is done. Results. According to the register 35 centers of kidney transplantation, 22 centers of liver transplantation and 11 centers of heart transplantation were functioning in the Russian Federation in 2016. The waiting list of kidney transplantation in 2016 included 4818 potential recipients that make 14% of total number of the patients (35 000) receiving dialysis. The rate of donor activity in 2016 made 3.3 p. m. p. Efficiency of donor programs in 2016 continued to increase: the share of multiorgan retrieval made 64.1%, average number of organs received from one effective donor made 2.7. In 2016 the rate of kidney transplantation made 7.4 p. m. p., the rate of liver transplantation made 2.6 p. m. p.; the rate of heart transplantation made 1.5 p. m. p. In 2016 the number of transplantations in the Russian Federation increased by 14.8% in comparison with 2015 having overcome the level of 1700 organs transplantation. The Moscow region still remains to be the core of stability and development of the organ donation and transplantation in the country where 10 centers of transplantation function and half of all kidney transplantations and more than 70% of all liver and heart transplantations are carried out. Conclusion. The results of 2016 were positively affected by the introduction of targeted financial support of medical activity, related to organ donation, from federal budget resources. Among unresolved problems which constrain the development there are collision of legal regulation of licensing of medical activities for organ donation and transplantation, lack of the state order for the organization of transplantological medical care in each region, lack of responsibility of the heads of the regions and medical organizations for the organization of organ donation. Positive tendencies of the development of organ donation and transplantation in Russia call for further monitoring, strengthening and building.

In 1995 the Italian Institute of Health began assembling information regarding organ donors, recipients, and transplants. Data on more than 3000 transplants were collected and recorded to date. In addition to characteristics of donors and donating hospitals, this article describes donation activity and organ procurement in Italy from 1992 to 1996. Despite the encouraging results, the donation situation in Italy remains a challenge due to the nonhomogeneous distribution of organ donation throughout the country. It is hoped that an increase in the rate of organ donation and procurement in some regions will enable Italy to reach the European mean.

Although recent research has established a relationship between donation rates and the consent process for organ and tissue donation, little attention has been given to the content of the donation discussion. Recent studies suggest that families want more information to aid them in making the decision to consent. To address the family's needs, the interviewer should introduce the subject appropriately, respond fully to the family's questions, and provide the following information: the options of donating particular organs or tissues, the potential benefits of donation, the right not to donate, the effects on the funeral, the lack of cost of donation to the family, a description of the procurement procedures, and what will happen if the donated organs cannot be used for transplant.

Background: Organ donation is defined as an act of giving one or more organs, without compensation, for transplantation to another person. For many of the end stage organ diseases, organ transplantation is the most preferred treatment. The need for organ transplantation is higher than the availability. For the transplantation program to be successful awareness regarding organ donation is needed and people must have a positive attitude towards donating organs. The present study was undertaken to assess the attitude of general population towards organ donation residing in a rural community of Ernakulam District. Materials and methods: A descriptive analytical survey was conducted to assess the attitude of general population towards organ donation. A 5 point likert scale was used to assess the attitude towards organ donation. 100 subjects were selected using convenient sampling technique. The collected data was analysed by using descriptive and inferential statistics. Results: The results of the study revealed that among 100 subjects, 81% of general population were having positive attitude, 19% were having neutral attitude and none of the subjects were having negative attitude towards organ donation. Even though majority of subjects were having positive attitude towards organ donation only 34% subjects were willing for organ donation. There was a significant association between the attitude of general population towards organ donation with demographic variables like religion and history of organ transplantation among family members/ relatives/ friends at P<0.05 level of significance. Conclusion: The study revealed that majority of the participants were having positive attitude towards organ donation.

The potential for further development of the transplantation care in theRussian Federationcontinues to persist. In particular, at the expense of increasing efficiency of regional donation programs, expanding practices of multiorgan recuperation and transplantations of extrarenal organs, through interregional transplant coordination. It is critical to keep the volumes of the state order to deliver transplantological medical care to the population and to implement federal funding to conduct donation programs.

Organ transplantation and organ donation is an important issue today. It was implemented in different ways. The medical field offers new methods of treatment, including organ transplantation and human services. This is one of the most difficult and complex aspects of modern medicine. It is a surgical replacement of diseased organ by another healthy human organ. It was implemented in different ways. Donation and organ transplantation are important issue of today. The medical field offers new methods of treatment, including organ transplantation and human services. Researchers have been trying to expand stem cells to other organs and are experimenting with alternatives to human blood. Organ Transplantation and donations are performed under the supervision of a competent transplant team.

Purpose: Organ transplantation is a treatment for patients with end-stage organ failure limited by the number of organs. The aims of this article are: to compare the relevance of the indicated systems for the number of donated organs, to analyze the status of organ donation, to identify current issues and possible measures in order to increase the number of donations from deceased donors in Poland. Design/methodology/approach: The paper refers to theories from behavioral economics: status quo bias, human tendency to procrastinate, aversion to changes. It also analyzes statistical data of donated organs and the number of objections raised in Poland. Findings: There is a widespread public approval for organ donation in Poland, however most people do not state their decisions. Countries with an opt-out system have a higher rate of organ donations. In Poland in 2020 less than 0,1% of population objected to donate organs, yet 12% of potential donors were disqualified due to record in the Central Register of Objections or family’s statement. In 2016 only 20% of population was aware that presumed consent is legally binding. Moreover, 75% have never talked with their relatives about donating their organs. Research limitations/implications: The article relies on general data from statistical databases and population-based survey studies, which do not include detailed information on the subject described, and thus do not provide data for reliable in-depth statistical analysis. Due to unavailability of numeric data on the reasons for abandoning the organ procurement, the article relied on the available general statistical classification. The authors find an qualitative research to be worth considering in the studied area in order to identify profound causes of the problem and to find a target group for future experimental research. Practical implications: As majority of Polish population is pro-donation the presumed consent for organ donation is preferable to increase the number of donors. Social implications: Profound ignorance of the legislations and broad unawareness of the family's preference is the foundation of public fear and uncertainty towards organ donation. Originality/value: As the social factor appears to be the limiting factor for organ procurement it is fundamental to educate the society about transplantation in a relevant way in order to increase the number of donations in Poland. Keywords: Organ Transplantation, Tissue and Organ Procurement, Presumed Consent. Category of the paper: Research paper/General review.

Background: Solid organ donation and transplantation remains grossly underdeveloped in most African countries. The knowledge and attitude of tomorrow’s professionals may be key to the improvement of these services. Methods: A sample of undergraduate medical students from all the medical schools in Kenya offering Bachelor of Medicine and Bachelor of Surgery degrees were surveyed using a self-administered, web-based questionnaire, between July and September 2018. Results: Of the 303 participants, 167 (55.1%) were female. Only 8.9% of the students had read the laws governing transplantation in Kenya. An even lower percentage (3.3%) felt that they had learned enough about solid organ donation and transplantation from their medical curriculum. More than half (53%) of the respondents would subscribe as solid organ donors, which reduced to 47% when it came to consenting to donating their relatives’ organs. Less than half of the students (40%) considered they would be comfortable introducing the topic or confident answering questions (23%) related to organ donation and transplantation. Only 9.9% of the sample had ever spoken to a patient about organ donation. There was no significant association between level of study (preclinical versus clinical) and comfort introducing the topic of organ donation (P = 0.206) or experience talking to a patient about the subject (P = 0.102). Conclusion: Undergraduate medical students have significant knowledge gaps regarding organ donation and transplantation and feel ill-prepared to approach a potential donor or transplant recipient.

Despite the increase in demand for organs, the number of organ donations has remained relatively static; this is concerning as the comparatively low rate of consent for organ donation in the UK is the greatest factor limiting transplantation ( Vincent and Logan, 2012 ). All health professionals, including health visitors, should be aware of new legislation surrounding organ donation so they can provide advice and refer those requiring further information to the NHS Blood and Transplant service.

A retrospective analysis of the demographic features of all potential organ donors over a 3-year period (1994–1996) at one organ procurement organization was conducted. The potential donor pool of 495 people was 42% female and 58% male, with a slight difference in consent by gender. The mean income difference between donors and nondonors was less than $3000 per year (obtained from zip code census data). Educational achievement affected donation at the lowest educational levels. Cause of death influenced donation, with motor vehicle crash victims donating more often. The strongest factor in consent for donation was ethnicity; whites were more likely to donate than were other ethnic groups. The combination of gender, ethnicity, and cause of death improved the probability of determining a positive outcome to 63%. Demographic information on donors and nondonors can increase public and professional understanding as well as influence decision making to improve donation.

Renal transplantation is the most successful treatment strategy for patients with ESRD to improve survival and quality of life. The study presented here examines the relationship of gender and living related (LR) transplantation donor and recipient rates in the United States. National data from the United States Renal Data System (USRDS) were used for this study. All LR transplants occurring between 1991 and 1993 among blacks and whites were included (N = 6193). Transplantation and donation rates for men and women were calculated. Poisson regression was used to calculate female/male transplantation and donation rate ratios. Overall, women were 10% less likely to receive a LR transplant than men (rate ratio [RR] = 0.90, P < 0.001). This gender difference increased over time from 1991 (Female/Male RR = 0.95, P = not significant [NS]) to 1993 (RR = 0.85, P < 0.001). In contrast, women were significantly more likely to donate a kidney than men (RR = 1.28, P < 0.001 and RR = 1.29, P < 0.001 among whites and blacks, respectively). Analyses by age subgroups revealed that only among ESRD patients aged 20 to 44 yr was the likelihood of receiving a LR kidney transplant equal for men and women. Higher donation rates among women compared with men were observed in all donor age and race subgroups except young blacks (aged 0 to 19 yr). Recipient gender appeared to influence donation rates. The female-to-male relative donation rates were higher when donations were to female, compared with male, recipients. This study of national data suggests an imbalance in LR donation and transplantation between men and women. Women are more likely to donate a kidney but are less likely to receive a LR transplant than men. Several potential explanatory factors are explored. These findings suggest a need for the development of gender-appropriate interventions to encourage donation among men and LR transplantation among women, to ultimately facilitate greater use of this ESRD treatment modality.

Background: In India bilateral corneal blindness constitute one percent of total blindness, With huge addition of cases of corneal blindness annually. Corneal transplantation offers the potential for sight restoration. The patients for corneal transplantation are growing due to insufficient number of eye donations in India. The gap between demand and supply is due to low awareness. Especially there is a need to study the knowledge of first line health counsellor in health facility where potential donors are available.Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted on May 2016 with 140 first year Nursing students to assess their perception towards eye donation. Data were expressed as proportions and percentages using SPSS 16.Results: All participants knew about eye donation and 95.7% said these can be done irrespective of age and sex of the deceased. 55% students told HIV is a contraindication, 10% said that request for eye donations can be made by person himself alive or relatives after death. 15% knew that eye can be donated within six hours of death but none were aware regarding storage of donated eyes before transplantation. Only 2.1% of them heard about Hospital Corneal Retrieval Programme. Television (100%) was the main source of information. All of them personally supported eye donation.Conclusions: The present study revealed that nursing students had heard about eye donation but knew less about the details of the procedure. They can contribute to awareness and motivating people for eye donation during their postings in various department in hospital.

Background: Organ donation not only saves the lives of dying people but also improves the quality of life of many patients. A huge demand supply gap exists between patients requiring transplantation and organ donors. Organ transplantation has become the only hope for some patients with damaged or failing organs to extend their life. This study was carried out to assess the knowledge and attitude towards organ donation and transplantation amongst the undergraduate medical students.Methods: A cross-sectional study was carried out amongst 98 undergraduate students of IIMSR Medical College, Badnapur, Jalna during the period of January to August 2016. Knowledge and attitude regarding organ donation were assessed using a pre-designed, pre-tested and validated questionnaire. Results were analyzed in the form of percentage and proportions whenever necessary.Results: In present study, only 35.71% students knew the definition of organ donation, whereas 46.94% and 51.02% students knew that what organs can be donated and who could be an organ donar respectively. Majority 71.43% students believed that who should make decision about organ donation in case of unclaimed dead body. Majority 82.65% students reported that live organ donation is better than cadaveric organ donation in solving shortage, 67.34% thought that donating one’s organ adds meaning to one’s life.Conclusions: Undergraduate students have inadequate knowledge, but have positive attitudes towards organ donation. There is a need to increase knowledge regarding organ donation among this essential group.

Introduction: As many countries change to opt-out systems to address organ shortages, calls for similar reform in Australia persist. Community perspectives on consent systems for donation remain under-researched, therefore Australian perspectives on consent systems and their effectiveness in increasing donation rates were explored. Design: In this descriptive cross-sectional study, participants completed a survey presenting opt-in, soft opt-out, and hard opt-out systems, with corresponding descriptions. Participants chose the system they perceived as most effective and described their reasoning. Results: Participants (N = 509) designated soft opt-out as the most effective system (52.3%; hard opt-out 33.7%; opt-in 13.7%). Those who identified with an ethnic/cultural group or were not registered had greater odds of choosing opt-out. Six themes identified in thematic analysis reflected their reasoning: (1) who decides (individual, shared decision with family); (2) right to choose; (3) acceptability (ethics, fairness); and utility in overcoming barriers for (4) individuals (apathy, awareness, ease of donating, fear/avoidance of death); (5) family (easier family experience, family veto); (6) society (normalizing donation, donation as default, expanding donor pool). Choice and overcoming individual barriers were more frequently endorsed themes for opt-in and opt-out, respectively. Discussion: Results suggested the following insights regarding system effectiveness: uphold/prioritize individual's recorded donation decision above family wishes; involve family in decision making if no donation preference is recorded; retain a register enabling opt-in and opt-out for unequivocal decisions and promoting individual control; and maximize ease of registering. Future research should establish whether systems considered effective are also acceptable to the community to address organ shortages.

One of the miracles of modern medicine for patients with end stage organ failure is organ transplantation. The Organ Procurement and Transplantation Network (OPTN) defines organ donation as giving an organ, tissue, cells, or part of an organ from a living or deceased person (i.e., the donor) to a living person in need (i.e., the recipient). In the last two decades, the number of organ transplants has gradually increased; however, the demand for organ transplantation exceeds the number of available donors. Organs from brain dead donors have been suggested as an alternative option for increasing donation rates when living donors are not available. This article explores the debate surrounding brain death organ donation in Muslim countries. Because organ transplantation is based on Ijtihad, Muslim jurists have no clear-cut text in the Holy Quran or Sunna to use as a foundation for judgment. This has made organ transplants an issue among Muslim scholars and researchers, splitting them into two opinion groups, with one side seeing organ transplantation as legal and the other believing it to be illegal. However, all individuals have the right to choose whether they want to help others by sacrificing parts of themselves and donating their organs. Autonomy, justice, and beneficence must be employed in organ transplantation decision-making.

Background. Attitude towards organ donation is predominantly positive in the UK, however, donation rate remains low. To develop more effective interventions, this research aims to examine the behavioural barriers in organ donations using Q methodology to elicit patterns of overlap among different barriers and motivators.Method. A Q methodology study was conducted with 40 participants aged 19–64 were asked to rank 47 statements on issues that are associated with organ donation. By-person factor analysis using Centroid method and Varimax rotation was conducted to bring out patterns in the way statements were ranked to obtain groupings of participants who had arranged the statements in similar fashion.Results. Four viewpoints were extracted: The Realist, the Optimist Hesitant, the Pessimist Determinant and the Empathetic. Salient barriers to organ donation presented in each viewpoint suggest that perceived lack of knowledge, anxiety, mistrust in the healthcare system and lack of cue to action are the main barriers to organ donation. Consensus statements suggest that religion and family agreement are inconsequential if attitude to organ donation is well formed.Conclusion. There are different attitudes around deceased organ donation that were uncovered using Q methodology. These results suggest that people respond to behavioural change campaigns differently depending in their own perceptions on organ donation. We argue that a paradigm shift in behavioural interventions is underpinned by understanding the overlapping yet distinctive nature perceived perspectives.

Today in Ukraine the problem of transplantation of organs and other anatomical materials to humans is very acute. Every year, thousands of Ukrainians need organ transplants to save their lives, but there are only a few transplant surgeries. In developed countries, organ transplantation is the standard of care for many diseases of the kidneys, heart, liver, lungs and others. Among the reasons hindering the development of transplantation of anatomical materials to humans in Ukraine is the unpreparedness of the Unified State Information System for Organ and Tissue Transplantation (USIST). According to the author, the functioning of USIST will not be complete without a successfully developed and implemented module of supporting the decision making about the possibility of donation and transplantation based on the civil law, which will help decide on the possibility or impossibility of donation and transplantation in a given case considering civil law grounds. Developed methods of supporting the decision making about the possibility of donation and transplantation based on the civil law make it impossible to make incorrect (illegal) decisions on the possibility/impossibility of donation and/or transplantation. The use of the developed methods increases the level of correctness of the decisions made regarding donation and transplantation. Thus, the module of supporting the decision making about the possibility of donation and transplantation based on the civil law of the USIST will allow: rapid and automatic verification of all civil legal grounds for inclusion in the Register of Donors or the List of persons for transplantation, respectively; making unmistakable (from the point of view of civil law) decisions on donation and transplantation; minimizing the influence of subjectivity and the human factor in making decisions about the possibility/impossibility of donation and transplantation. Therefore, an important and urgent task now is the implementation of the designed module of supporting the decision making about the possibility of donation and transplantation based on the civil law.

In January 2001, the National Coordination Center, which brought tissue and organ procurement and transplantation under the Turkish Health Ministry, was established in Turkey. The main aims of this organization are to expand cadaveric donation and increase the number of transplantable organs supplied by cadaveric donors. We compared the proportions of cadaveric organ transplantations that were performed in Turkey before and after the national coordination system was established. Of all the cadaveric transplantations completed to date, 91.6% of kidney and 71.5% of liver procedures were done before implementation of the new system, and 8.4% and 28.5%, respectively, were performed after the system was established. The data show that the frequency of cadaveric donation has increased, as well as the number of cadaveric organ transplantations performed annually. The new national transplantation coordination system is making a good start at increasing cadaveric transplantation in Turkey. This system will hopefully lead to a larger organ pool and shorter waiting lists in future.

Abstract Purpose We investigated the status of deceased organ donation and transplantation through a questionnaire distributed to transplant centers in Japan during the COVID-19 pandemic. Methods The questionnaire was distributed electronically to 206 transplant centers for heart (n = 11), lung (n = 10), liver (n = 25), kidney (n = 130), pancreas (n = 18), and small intestine (n = 12) transplantation. Organ donations and organ transplantation data were extracted from the Japan Organ Transplant Network website. Results We received questionnaire responses from 177 centers (response rate, 86%). In 2020, the number of brain-dead donors (BDDs) decreased to 68 (69% of the year-on-year average) and the number of donors after cardiac death (DCDs) decreased to 9 (32% of the year-on-year average). Eighty-five (48%) transplant centers (heart, n = 0; lung, n = 0; liver, n = 4; kidney, n = 78; pancreas, n = 22; and small intestine, n = 0) suspended transplant surgeries in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. Consequently, the number of organ transplantations from deceased donors was significantly lower in 2020 than in 2019. Conclusion Although the COVID-19 pandemic has had less impact in Japan than in other countries, it has affected transplantation activity significantly, suspending transplantation surgeries in 48% of the transplantation centers, including 78% of the kidney transplantation centers, and reducing the number of organ donations to 61% of the year-on-year average.

Objectives. There are several approaches such as presumed consent and compensation for deceased donor organs that could reduce the gap between supply and demand for kidneys. Our objective is to evaluate the magnitude of the economic impact of policies to increase deceased donor organ donation in the United States. Methods. We built a Markov model and simulate an open cohort of end-stage renal disease patients awaiting kidney transplantation in the United States over 20 years. Model inputs were derived from the United States Renal Data System and published literature. We evaluate the magnitude of the health and economic impact of policies to increase deceased donor kidney donation in the United States. Results. Increasing deceased kidney donation by 5% would save $4.7 billion, and gain 30,870 quality-adjusted life years over the lifetime of an open cohort of patients on dialysis on the waitlist for kidney transplantation. With an increase in donations of 25%, the cost saved was $21 billion, and 145,136 quality-adjusted life years were gained. Policies increasing deceased kidney donation by 5% could pay donor estates $8000 or incur a onetime cost of up to $4 billion and still be cost-saving. Conclusions. Increasing deceased kidney donation could significantly impact national spending and health for end-stage renal disease patients.

Previous research shows that countries with opt-out consent systems for organ donation conduct significantly more deceased-donor organ transplantations than those with opt-in systems. This paper investigates whether the higher transplantation rates in opt-out systems translate into equally lower death rates among organ patients registered on a waiting list (i.e., organ-patient mortality rates). We show that the difference between consent systems regarding kidney- and liver-patient mortality rates is significantly smaller than the difference in deceased-donor transplantation rates. This is likely due to different incentives between the consent systems. We find empirical evidence that opt-out systems reduce incentives for living donations, which explains our findings for kidneys. The results imply that focusing on deceased-donor transplantation rates alone paints an incomplete picture of opt-out systems’ benefits, and that there are important differences between organs in this respect.

Uterus transplantation (UTx) offers women with absolute uterine factor infertility the option to gestate and birth their own biologically related child. The first birth following living donation UTx happened in 2014. The first birth following deceased donation happened in December 2017, with further successes since. Interest in deceased donation UTx is increasing. The authors established a database to track UTx clinical trials and outcomes. Utilising this database and existing literature, this article reviews the first reported cases of deceased donation UTx and outcomes, and drawing upon comparisons with living donor UTx, comments upon the future for this area of reproductive transplantation research. This is the first article to bring together the literature on deceased donation UTx procedures and outcomes.

INTRODUCTION: Information on the number, indications and outcome of cardiac transplantations in Icelandic patients is scarce, as is information on the number of hearts donated from Iceland for cardiac transplantation. MATERIAL AND METHODS: A retrospective study on patients receiving heart transplantation from the first procedure in 1988 until March 2019. Clinical information was gathered from Landspitali Transplantation Clinic, patient charts, and information on donated hearts from the Icelandic Donation Registry. Age-standardized incidence of the procedure was calculated, and overall survival (Kaplan-Meier) estimated. Mean follow-up was 10.3 years. RESULTS: Altogether 24 patients (19 males, median age 38 years, range: 4-65 years) underwent cardiac transplantation; that included one re-transplantation, three simultaneous heart- and lung transplants and two heart- and kidney transplants. The transplantations were performed in Gothenburg (n=20), London (n=3) and Copenhagen (n=2). Most common indications were dilated cardiomyopathy (n=10), congenital heart disease (n=4), and viral myocarditis (n=3). Five patients were bridged left ventricular-assist device preoperatively. Overall survival at 1 and 5 years was 91% and 86%, respectively; median survival being 24 years. The incidence of cardiac transplantation was 2.7 heart-TX pmp/year but increased to 4.6 heart-TX pmp/year after 2008 (p=0.01). During the same period 42 hearts were donated from Iceland for transplantation abroad, the first in 2002 and increasing from 0.8 to 3.0 hearts/year during the first and second half of the study-period, respectively. CONCLUSION: Survival of Icelandic cardiac transplant recipients is good and comparable to larger transplant centers overseas. Number of hearts donated from Iceland have increased and currently Iceland donates twice as many hearts at it receives.

In this paper, the actuality and importance of the process of supporting the decision-making about the possibility of donation based on the civil law grounds are proved. This realized process will help to decide about the possibility or impossibility of donation, in any case, taking into account all existing civil law grounds. A review of the literature was conducted. It proved that the known information systems in the field of donation and transplantology don’t propose the method of supporting the decision-making about the possibility of donation based on the civil law grounds. The review of the civil law grounds of donation in Ukraine was conducted. Production rules and method of supporting the decision-making about the possibility of donation based on civil law grounds has been first time developed. This method helps to the transplantation clinic staff to correctly form the Register of donors (living donors and posthumous donors), taking into account all current civil law grounds. The developed method standardizes the procedure of including donors in the Register, minimizing the impact of subjectivism and the human factor herewith. Thus, the developed method of supporting the decision-making about the possibility of donation minimizes the damage that the whole medical transplantation system may suffer and leverages the occurrence for its improvement. Experiment has shown that the developed method is workable and effective in determining the possibility of donation based on all currently existing civil law grounds in the complex. The perspective direction of the future authors' work is the design and development of the subsystem for supporting the decision-making about the possibility of donationn– on the basis of the production rules and method of support of making the decision about donation possibility on the basis of civil law grounds, which are developed in this paper.

Kidney chains are a recent and novel method of increasing the number of available kidneys for transplantation and have the potential to save thousands of lives. However, because they are novel, kidney chains do not fit neatly within existing legal and ethical frameworks, raising potential barriers to their full implementation.Kidney chains are an extension of paired kidney donation, which began in the United States in 2000. Paired kidney donations allow kidney patients with willing, but incompatible, donors to swap donors to increase the number of donor/recipient pairs and consequently, the number of transplants. More recently, transplant centers have been using non-simultaneous, extended, altruistic donor (“NEAD”) kidney chains—which consist of a sequence of donations by incompatible donors—to further expand the number of donations. This Article fully explains paired kidney donation and kidney chains and focuses on whether NEAD chains are more coercive than traditional kidney donation to a family member or close friend and whether NEAD chains violate the National Organ Transplant Act's prohibition on the transfer of organs for valuable consideration.

Regulatory T cells (Tregs) hold promise for cell-based therapies for autoimmunity and transplant rejection. In Canada, the potential collection, short-term banking, and transplantation of pediatric Tregs left over from surgery raise legal and policy concerns. Tregs likely fall under the definitions of “tissue” found in most provincial donation and transplantation statutes. With the exception of Alberta’s Human Tissue and Organ Donation Act, the fundamental distinction between donation of tissue primarily for transplantation and secondary donation of by-products of a medical intervention undertaken for the benefit of the donor is inadequately addressed in Canadian law. Most statutes prohibit transplantation except in accordance with their provisions and do not contemplate living donation by minors under a specific age. Provinces could amend their legislation in order to properly enable the transplantation of by-products like Tregs from infant donors. This process is relatively ethically uncontroversial, so if common research ethics and privacy concerns can be addressed, it should likely be permitted.

Organ transplantation has improved dramatically during the last decade. In spite of this a worldwide lack of donors still exists. There are sufficient numbers of potential donors available, but only 10% are utilised in practice. Investigations have shown that the main reason for this state of affairs is not reluctance of relatives to give permission for donation, but rather reluctance or even resistance from attending physicians to request permission. The reasons for this are complex and include such factors as ignorance, lack of commitment and reluctance to accept the greater workload that such involvement would demand. To combat this problem, a number of countries have passed legislation to compel doctors to ask permission for donation in every instance of brain death in suitable patients. The reasons for the greater success with organ transplantation are varied. Surgical techniques, especially in such technically difficult procedures as liver transplantation and heart-lung transplantations have shown considerable progress.

Organ transplantation is known to be a new and innovative treatment for patients with progressive organ failures. The present study investigates the current status of transplantation from cadaver along with its socio-cultural acceptability in Iran. The present study is a descriptive research in a systematic review method. Here, by investigating previously conducted researches in Iran during the period 2002- 2010, the status of transplantation from cadaver and its socio-cultural acceptability in Iran has been investigated. To collect the data, the access to Iranmedex website, the premier medical data center in Iran, was made possible using the related keywords. The obtained data indicate whereas there is an increase in the number of organ donations from cadaver, it is still low in comparison to other countries. The lack of consent from families of brain-dead patients is a major hurdle on the way of organ transplantation in Iran. In the cases of willingness to donate organs, the major effective factors were the deceaseds religious beliefs and prior tendency. In 66% of the cases, the donors families deemed organ donation phenomenon effective in alleviating the sorrow after the death of their beloved ones. The number of organ donation from cadaver in Iran is low contrary to other countries. It seems that general instructions to raise the knowledge on the subject and lay the foundation to increase the tendency towards posthumous organ donation are necessary.International Journal of Natural Sciences (2012), 2(3):63-66 DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.3329/ijns.v2i3.12133

Although transplantation centers directly benefit from organ and tissue donation, they continue to yield low organ and tissue referral and donation rates. Our medical center and organ procurement organization developed a model to increase referral and donation rates. This model, called the Transplant Center Development Model, facilitates the donation process, specializes staff education, and promotes administrative involvement. After it was was implemented at our medical center in 1991, the referral and donation rates from 1988 to 1990 were compared with those from 1991 to 1993. The results showed that after implementation of the model, the organ referral mean increased 47%; the organ donation mean, 50%; and the tissue donation mean, 117%. These findings suggest that this model may be a valuable tool in transplant center development.

Aim. The study of public opinion, analysis of population’s attitude towards a number of issues concerning both transplantation in general and corneal transplantation in particular for development of the optimal tactics of approach to still unresolved issues in this area. Materials and Methods. Specially designed questionnaire has been used for the survey, consisting of 14 questions, that allows to evaluate opinion of the population on a number of issues related to transplantation, postmortem donation, monetary compensations, etc. The study population was 384 people. Results. Most respondents were aware of keratoplasty. Approximately every seventh respondent (15.4%) of the survey had relatives or close acquaintances with a corneal pathology. Most of the respondents have a positive attitude both to the living and postmortem donation. At the same time, almost all the respondents know about the existence of waiting lists for organ transplantations and also support the opinion about the need for informational popularization of postmortem donation. As to the issue of commercialization of donation, no unified point of view was reached, the opinions differ practically equally. The prevailing number of respondents consider the existence of informed consent to be obligatory, but a part of respondents think that in some cases the surgery can be made without it. Conclusion. Nowadays, despite a significant progress in the field of transplantology, there still remains a number of issues requiring detailed and comprehensive examination. They are related to the legislative regulation, informational popularization, monetary compensation, as well as the waiting lists for the transplantation.

AbstractOne of the most significant developments in recent history has probably been organ donation and organ transplantation. They are frequently the only treatment available in certain cases. However, there is an ever-increasing discrepancy between the number of people needing transplantation and the organs available, because the decision to donate an organ is up to each individual. The study aims to assess the impact of the intervention on knowledge, attitudes and practices on organ donation among religious immigrants in Sweden. Data were collected through three group interviews using open-ended questions and qualitative content analysis. Thirty-six participants, 18 males and 18 females from six countries, participated in the focus group interviews. The analysis of the collected data resulted in two main categories: “Religion in theory and practice” and “More information—more knowledge about organ donation” including seven subcategories. Understanding of religion and religiosity, happiness by taking the class, the practice of religion in everyday life, the overcoming the prejudices in religion, having more information about organ donation and the donations process, as well as that the increased information changes people’s minds, were some of things the informants emphasised as predictors of the decision of organ donation. A class dealing with religion, the religious aspects of organ donation and the way the Swedish healthcare system is organised increased people’s knowledge and changed their attitudes so they became potential organ donors. More intervention studies are needed in every field of medicine to build confidence and give time to educate and discuss issues with potential organ donors in Sweden.
