ABSTRACT

INTRODUCTION: The lack of a clear and reproducible methodology for evaluating potential organ donors, which ensures traceability in the process, can compromise the number of utilized organ donors and the transplantation quality. METHODOLOGY: We developed a reproducible and safe method for the evaluation and validation of Potential Organ Donors (PD) based on 2 principles:1) Updated knowledge of absolute contraindications for organ donation and, 2) Decision making supported by 3 questions. The first principle was absolute contraindications. They were categorized into 4 groups: A) Serologies, B) Tumors, C) Infections, and D) Biological risk for transmission of infectious diseases and cancer. The second principle was the decision-making questions: A) What is the cause of death? B) Are there absolute contraindications to organ donation? and, C) Are there relative contraindications to organ donation? Each PD was subjected to the same methodology. The questions were answered after knowing the PD's clinical file. The PD was valid only if the set of answers adhered to an established matrix respecting different guidelines. The same physician evaluated each PD in all OPO. We applied in 4 different OPO, 3 of them in the State of São Paulo/Brazil and one in the United Arab Emirates, in different periods, including the SARS-COV 2 pandemic. RESULTS: OPO­SCSP, before the methodology (2007): 62 utilized donors, 205 transplants. After the methodology has been started (2008/2009/2010): 117, 154, 186 utilized donors and 348, 533, 487 transplants, respectively. 2) OPO-BTU, before the methodology (2009): 9 utilized donors and 19 transplants. After the methodology has been started (2010/2011/2012): 17, 36, 49 utilized donors and 38, 90, 143 transplants, respectively. 3) OPO-IDPC, before the methodology (2017): 93 utilized donors and 202 transplants. After the methodology has been started (2018/2019/2020): 107, 177, 187 utilized donors and 219, 395, 356 transplants, respectively. 4) UAE OPO, before the methodology (2020): 9 utilized donors and 35 transplants. After the methodology has been started (2021/2022): 39, 55 utilized donors and 147, 203 transplants, respectively. The percentage increase after the beginning of the methodology, considering the last year evaluated: 1) OPO-SCSP: 195% (Utilized donors) and 137% (Transplants); 2) OPO-BTU: 444% (Utilized donors) and 652% (Transplants); C) OPO-IDPC: 101% (Utilized Donors) and 76% (Transplants); 4) OPO-EOTC (United Arab Emirates): 511% (Utilized donors) and 480% (Transplants). CONCLUSION: The methodology used demonstrates that it can directly contribute to increasing the percentage of effective donors and transplants. The increase in donors ranged from 101% to 444%. The percentage growth of transplantation ranged from 76% to 652%. Indirectly, an increase the referrals was observed, motivated by frequent contact with OPO members and ICU professionals.

ABSTRACT

BACKGROUND: Major advances have been made in heart transplantation, but there is a discrepancy between the number of patients potentially treatable by transplantation and the limited number of viable grafts. The aim of this study was to evaluate the reasons for refusal of donor hearts. METHODS: This was a retrospective analysis of donor data from an organ procurement organization in the state of São Paulo (Brazil) between 2010 and 2012. Fisher's exact test, Student's t-test, and the Mann-Whitney U-test were used in the statistical analysis. RESULTS: Only 26 (7.9%) of 328 potential heart donors actually became donors. Most donors were men (18/26, 69.2%), Caucasians (14/26, 53.8%), and had a mean age of 23.5 yr. There were significant associations of use of donor hearts with the variables: brain death after trauma (p = 0.002), history of hypertension (p = 0.001), electrocardiographic changes (p = 0.007), and age (p = 0.001). Older age (n = 101, 33.4%) was the main reason for refusal of donor hearts, followed by poor medical history (n = 44, 14.6%), cardiac arrest of the donor during donor care (n = 25, 8.3%), use of vasopressor drugs (n = 23, 7.6%), and hemodynamic instability (n = 20, 6.6%). CONCLUSIONS: Age, poor medical history, cardiac arrest, use of vasopressors, and hemodynamic instability were the most prevalent reasons for refusal of donor hearts. Echocardiogram evaluation is a potential intervention to improve heart transplantation conversion in Brazil.

ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE: To define donors' profile of an Organ and Tissue Procurement Center and compare the family consent for tissue donation before and after modification of the Donation Term. METHODS: A descriptive, documentary and quantitative study performed in an Organ and Tissue Procurement Center, analyzed 111 feasible donors' charts in the period from March 13 to September 13, 2010 (1st period), and from September 14, 2010 to March 14, 2011 (2nd period), based on the modification date. RESULTS: The mean age of donors was 45.2 years, being 52.3% female. The causes of death included cerebral vascular accident (stroke) (64%), head trauma (27%), anoxic encephalopathy (2.7%), firearm injuries (2.7%) and others (3.6%). The notifications were predominantly of spontaneous origin (91%). Comparing the periods before and after the modification of the Donation Term, the donation consent for cornea increased by 17.2% and the consent for skin, bones, tendons and muscles had a discreet increase by 3.1%, 9.9% and 0.4%, respectively. On the other hand, there was decrease in consent for blood vessel (0.8%) and heart valves (4.1%) between the two periods. CONCLUSION: There was increase in family consent for donation of most tissues, but it was statistically significant only for cornea donation.

Objetivo Traçar o perfil dos doadores viabilizados por um Serviço de Procura de Órgãos e Tecidos e comparar o consentimento familiar para doação de tecidos antes e após esta modificação do Termo de Doação. Método Estudo descritivo, documental, quantitativo, realizado em um Serviço de Procura de Órgãos e Tecidos, analisou 111 prontuários de doadores viabilizados nos períodos de 13 de março a 13 de setembro de 2010 (1o Período) e de 14 de Setembro de 2010 a 14 de Março de 2011 (2o período), selecionados com base na data desta modificação. Resultado Foi encontrada média de idade de 45,2 anos entre os doadores, sendo 52,3% do sexo feminino. As causas de morte incluem acidente vascular encefálico (64%), traumatismos cranioencefálicos (27%), encefalopatias anóxicas (2,7%), ferimentos por arma de fogo (2,7%) e outras (3,6%). As notificações foram predominantemente de origem espontânea (91%). Comparando os períodos antes e após a modificação do Termo de Doação, o consentimento para doação de córneas apresentou aumento de 17,2% e para doação de pele, ossos, tendões e músculos, discreto aumento de 3,1%, 9,9% e 0,4% respectivamente. Por sua vez, apresentou discreta diminuição o consentimento de vasos sanguíneos, de 0,8%, e valvas cardíacas de 4,1%, entre os períodos. Conclusão Obteve-se um aumento do consentimento familiar para a doação da maioria dos tecidos, porém com significância estatística apenas para doação de córneas. .
