Book The Relationship Between Critical Care Nurses  Knowledge and Attitude Toward Organ Procurement

Download or read book The Relationship Between Critical Care Nurses Knowledge and Attitude Toward Organ Procurement written by Cathy Odorisio and published by . This book was released on 1991 with total page 130 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this study was to attitudes and knowledge regarding organ procurement. Nurses in critical care areas completed a questionnaire designed to elicit their attitudes toward and knowledge of organ donation. The sample consisted of thirty critical care nurses. The theoretical framework for this study was derived from Dorethea Orem's Self-Care Nursing Model. Statistical analysis did not establish a relationship between knowledge and attitude regarding organ procurement. A relationship was found between fact that a nurse had previously cared for donors and the degree of comfort felt in approaching a family to request organs and their own desire to donate organs. Results indicated that although most nurses were supportive of organ procurement, there were aspects in which they lacked knowledge. The study revealed the need for additional awareness and education of nurses in all areas of the organ donation process.

Book Non Heart Beating Organ Transplantation

Download or read book Non Heart Beating Organ Transplantation written by Institute of Medicine and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2000-04-19 with total page 173 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1997, the Institute of Medicine published a report entitled Non-Heart- Beating Organ Transplantation: Medical and Ethical Issues in Procurement. The findings and recommendations of that study defined the ethical and scientific basis for non-heart-beating organ donation and transplantation, and provided specific recommendations for practices that affirm patient welfare, promote patient and family choice, and avoid conflicts of interest. Following the 1997 study, the Department of Health and Human Services requested a follow up study to promote such efforts. The central activity for this study was a workshop held in Washington, D.C., on May 24-25, 1999. The workshop provided the opportunity for extensive dialogue on non-heart-beating organ donation among hospitals and organ procurement organizations (OPOs) that are actively involved in non-heartbeating organ and tissue donation and those with concerns about whether and how to proceed. The findings and recommendations of this report are based in large measure on the discussions and insights from that workshop. Non-Heart-Beating Organ Transplantation includes seven recommendations for developing and implementing non-heart-beating-donor protocols. These recommendations were based on the findings and recommendations from the 1997 IOM report and consensus achieved among participants at the national workshop. The committee developed these recommendations as steps towards an approach to non-heart-beating-donor organ donation and procurement consistent with underlying scientific and ethical guidelines, patient and family options and choices, and public trust in organ donation.
