WHEN 1. After medical and legal diagnosis of brain death 2. The physician in charge of the patient must report thedeath to the family. 3. Terminology use term ‘death’and not the term ‘brain death’ 3. Family needs to understand the patient’s death. 4. Before the interview it is important to confirm that immediaterelatives of the donor will attend. 5. It is advisable that the transplant coordinator is present Technical Assistance for Alignment in Organ Donation project, 1st International Symposium 2014
General recommendation 1 ONT Spain 1. Immediate relatives of the potential organdonor should be present at the interview. 2. The request for consent to donation must never berushed. We should wait for the right time to approach the family. 3. After the physician in charge communicates the patient’sdeath, it is advisable to wait for families’ prompts suchas: “What should we do now?” Technical Assistance for Alignment in Organ Donation project, 1st International Symposium 2014
General recommendations 2 4. At this moment, and not before, consent to organ donationfor transplantation should be introduced to relativesby a professional from TCT. It should be explained thattheir deceased relative – naming him/her by their name –“can help others”. 5. An emphasis on the social and healthbenefits for patients on the waiting list for organ transplantationis recommended. 6. Death is hard, not donation. Technical Assistance for Alignment in Organ Donation project, 1st International Symposium 2014
To conclude • Be aware : Giving bad news about dead is more difficult than asking for donation Technical Assistance for Alignment in Organ Donation project, 1st International Symposium 2014
