Get Consent Bformb FRM4281 V4 - ODT Clinical Site

Criteria for the referral of “imminent deaths” that are mutually established by the hospital and organ procurement organization (OPO) and which ensure the hospital makes a timely notification to the OPO.

The legislation for Wales is 'deemed consent'. This means that if you haven't registered an organ and tissue donation decision, you will be considered to have no objection to becoming a donor.

Opinion polls suggest that as many as 90% of the UK population support donation and transplantation but the family consent and authorisation rate hovers around 65%.

1) Call within one hour after death (preferably before family leaves hospital). 2) If the patient is suitable, KODA staff will conduct the request for donation by phone.

Organ Donation and Transplantation This site aims to share knowledge and expertise, in order to ensure the highest standard of care to organ donors and transplant patients.

Donor Referral At or near the time of a patient's death, a physician, nurse, or other designated representative from the hospital contacts LiveOnNY at 1-800-GIFT-4-NY (1-800-443-8469). The caller provides confidential information to determine if the patient is a potential donor.

Whenever possible, referral should be made early enough to allow the OPO to assess the patient's suitability for organ donation before brain death is declared and before the option of organ donation is presented to the family of the potential donor.

One organ donor can save up to eight lives. One eye and tissue donor can save or improve the lives of up to 50 people. This means an organ, eye and tissue donor can potentially impact the lives of 58 people!
