The objective of the present article is to review moral assumptions underlying organ donation in the intensive care unit. Data sources used include personal experience, and a Medline search and a non-Medline search of relevant English-language literature. The study selection included articles concerning organ donation. All data were extracted and analysed by the author. In terms of data synthes...
One of the barriers to ending the prohibition on compensated organ donations is that people do not have a good idea what a legal, compensated system would look like. The ban on compensation is nearly global, and has existed, de facto or de jure, almost since the development of immunosuppressive drugs made donations from unrelated individuals feasible. The resulting dearth of first-hand knowledg...
OBJECTIVE To review the factors involved in determining the availability of solid organs for transplantation in Hong Kong and to identify methods that have been used in other countries to increase organ donation rates. DATA SOURCES Medline and non-Medline search of the relevant English literature, local data, and personal experience. STUDY SELECTION Articles describing approaches to solid o...
A consensus meeting to develop guidelines that would improve the recovery and transplantation of organs from the cadaver donor was held on 28–29 March 2001, in Crystal City, Virginia, sponsored by the American Society of Transplant Surgeons and the American Society of Transplantation. The crisis in organ supply persists and the continuing shortage presents a compelling responsibility for the tr...
TISSUE LOSS OR END-STAGE ORGAN FAILURE caused by injury or other types of damage is one of the most devastating and costly problems in human health care. Surgical strategies that have been developed to deal with these problems include organ transplantation from one individual to another, tissue transfer from a healthy site to the diseased site in the same individual, and replacement by using me...
BACKGROUND Organ shortage remains a major challenge in transplantation medicine. The aim of this study was to analyze the public's willingness to donate organs and to observe whether increased knowledge about organ donation has an effect on the attitude toward organ donation. The study in particular tested the efficacy of using electronic communication as a means to distribute information. ME...
Heart failure is one of the leading causes of death worldwide. End stage disease often requires heart transplantation, which is hampered by donor organ shortage. Tissue engineering represents a promising alternative approach for cardiac repair. For the generation of artificial heart muscle tissue several cell types, scaffold materials and bioreactor designs are under investigation. In this revi...
Left ventricular assist devices (LVADs) have revolutionized therapy for patients with Stage D heart failure (HF) with reduced systolic function providing not only improved survival benefits but also meaningful changes in quality of life and functional capacity. With technological advances and improved durability of devices, length of survival has significantly improved. With continued organ don...
