Chinese Efforts to Pursue Effective Communication With Family of Potential Organ and Tissue Donor

Within the last decade, deceased organ donation and transplantation in China have made great progress, but there is still much room for improvement. Inefficient communication with the family of potential organ and tissue donors is one of the major reasons for donor loss. In this study, the current progress of the deceased organ donation program in China was summarized, with a particular focus on the analysis of problems and solutions for achieving best practices in communication with the family of potential organ and tissue donors. This paper is in compliance with the Helsinki Congress and the Declaration of Istanbul.
