Abstract

BACKGROUND: It is well known that the final treatment for human organ failure is transplantation. However, in reality, the number of donors of organs is insufficient compared to the number of patients waiting for transplantation. Identification of potential organ and tissue donors is important to transplantation. The status of patients having a possibility for transplantation among the patients who visited the emergency room was reviewed, and the status of donations of organs after determination of brain death in the emergency room was reviewed. The present study was performed in order to seek methods of increasing the rate of procurement of organs.
