Expanding the Criteria for Heart Transplantation Donors: A Review of DCD, Increased Ischemic Times, HCV, HIV, and Extended Criteria Donors
Heart Surg Forum. 2023 Oct 30;26(5):E639-E655. doi: 10.59958/hsf.6677.ABSTRACTWith the demand for heart transplantation continuing to outpace the available donor organs, previously underutilized donors are now being reconsidered. We sought to describe the emerging techniques and outcomes of expanded criteria heart transplantation. A comprehensive review of the recent literature concerning expanded donor selection in heart transplantation was performed using the PubMed MEDLINE database. To characterize trends in transplant practice, the United Network for Organ Sharing (UNOS/OPTN) registry was queried for all adult isolated...

Knowledge, Attitude, and Barriers Toward Deceased Organ Donation Among Health Care Professionals and Medical Students in Southern Saudi Arabia: A Cross-Sectional Study
CONCLUSIONS: Attitudes of medical students and health care personnel toward organ donation were positive, although they were generally reluctantto donate their organs.
