This chapter discusses the practice of organ procurement, including the family’s, physician’s, and organ procurement organization’s roles in this process. Procurement of donated organs is a major clinical undertaking requiring close monitoring and treatment by transplantation coordinators. Most importantly, consent for organ donation is discussed with the family, after the patient has been declared brain dead, and this chapter provides a thorough summary of these discussions. There are many physiological challenges to maintaining the viability of the organ donor, and these are discussed in detail. Each of the major physiological derangements and respective care are discussed. Medical management of the donor is aimed at anticipating the normal physiological changes with brain death and achieving optimal organ perfusion and minimizing ischemic injury.
