Abstract

BACKGROUND Like many other countries, Poland faces a shortage of transplantable organs despite implementing strategies to develop donation programs. Increasing the effectiveness of deceased organ donation programs requires the implementation of protocols and quality standards for the entire process. The aim of this study was to assess the organ donation potential in Warsaw hospitals (with and without implemented donation procedures) in the years 2017-2018, before the COVID-19 pandemic affected donation activity. The obtained results were compared with quality indicators established in the ODEQUS project and the European Commission project "Improving Knowledge and Practices in Organ Donation" (DOPKI). MATERIAL AND METHODS Retrospective analysis was performed of hospitalization and death causes (including deaths in the brain death mechanism) in the hospitals and intensive care units in 2017-2018. We divided 15 Warsaw hospitals into 2 groups: those with implemented quality programs for organ donation (n=4) and those without such programs (n=11). RESULTS Hospitals with procedures obtained significantly higher values than hospitals without procedures, but were lower than the values in DOPKI and ODEQUS. The success rate of the organ donation process after brain death recognition was comparable in all groups. The conversion rate to actual donors was 73% in hospitals with procedures compared to 68% in hospitals without procedures, significantly higher than in the 42% reported in the DOPKI project. CONCLUSIONS Low numbers of brain death declarations in Warsaw hospitals result from low recognition of deaths in the brain death mechanism. Implementing procedures at each hospital level will enable identification of critical points and comparison of solution outcomes.

器官捐献质量体系对华沙医院捐献活动的影响。
背景与许多其他国家一样,尽管波兰实施了发展捐献计划的战略,但仍面临着可移植器官短缺的问题。要提高已故器官捐献计划的有效性,就必须在整个过程中实施相关规程和质量标准。本研究的目的是在 COVID-19 大流行影响捐献活动之前,评估 2017-2018 年华沙医院(已实施和未实施捐献程序)的器官捐献潜力。研究结果与 ODEQUS 项目和欧盟委员会 "改善器官捐献知识和实践"(DOPKI)项目中确定的质量指标进行了比较。材料与方法 对 2017-2018 年医院和重症监护室的住院和死亡原因(包括脑死亡机制中的死亡)进行了回顾性分析。我们将 15 家华沙医院分为两组:实施了器官捐献质量计划的医院(4 家)和未实施此类计划的医院(11 家)。结果 实施了程序的医院获得的数值明显高于未实施程序的医院,但低于 DOPKI 和 ODEQUS 的数值。各组脑死亡识别后器官捐献程序的成功率相当。有程序的医院与无程序的医院相比,实际捐献者的转化率分别为73%和68%,明显高于DOPKI项目中报告的42%。结论:华沙医院脑死亡申报率低的原因是脑死亡机制对死亡的识别率较低。在每个医院层面实施程序将有助于识别关键点并比较解决方案的结果。

期刊介绍: Annals of Transplantation is one of the fast-developing journals open to all scientists and fields of transplant medicine and related research. The journal is published quarterly and provides extensive coverage of the most important advances in transplantation. Using an electronic on-line submission and peer review tracking system, Annals of Transplantation is committed to rapid review and publication. The average time to first decision is around 3-4 weeks. Time to publication of accepted manuscripts continues to be shortened, with the Editorial team committed to a goal of 3 months from acceptance to publication. Expert reseachers and clinicians from around the world contribute original Articles, Review Papers, Case Reports and Special Reports in every pertinent specialty, providing a lot of arguments for discussion of exciting developments and controversies in the field.
