Abstract
Background
In recent decades, China has experienced a shortage of donated bodies and organs for dissection during medical education and clinical transplantation. This study investigated and analyzed motivational factors affecting body and organ donation in China.
Methodology
Thirty-three body and organ donation volunteers were interviewed in-depth, and their donation motivations were investigated. The data were decomposed, detected, compared, conceptualized, and categorized using open, correlation, and selective coding based on grounded theory.
Results
The results were used to construct a model that elucidates the foundation of body and organ donation based on “humanistic medical care” and “death in existentialism” as driving forces for body and organ donors.
Conclusions
This study provides new theoretical perspectives that contribute to interpreting behavior related to body and organ donation and offers a theoretical basis for related policymaking and promotional work.
期刊介绍：
Transplantation Proceedings publishes several different categories of manuscripts, all of which undergo extensive peer review by recognized authorities in the field prior to their acceptance for publication.
The first type of manuscripts consists of sets of papers providing an in-depth expression of the current state of the art in various rapidly developing components of world transplantation biology and medicine. These manuscripts emanate from congresses of the affiliated transplantation societies, from Symposia sponsored by the Societies, as well as special Conferences and Workshops covering related topics.
Transplantation Proceedings also publishes several special sections including publication of Clinical Transplantation Proceedings, being rapid original contributions of preclinical and clinical experiences. These manuscripts undergo review by members of the Editorial Board.
Original basic or clinical science articles, clinical trials and case studies can be submitted to the journal?s open access companion title Transplantation Reports.
