    Area of Science:

    • Transplantation medicine
    • Organ procurement
    • Public health

    Background:

    • There is a significant demand for non-renal organs, including heart, liver, and pancreas grafts.
    • A widening gap exists between the supply of cadaveric organs and the demand for transplantation.
    • Current organ procurement practices require optimization to meet patient needs.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To introduce and detail a mandatory multiorgan procurement protocol.
    • To regulate collaboration between donor hospitals, Eurotransplant Foundation, and transplant centers.
    • To enhance the frequency and success rate of organ transplantation in Europe.

    Main Methods:

    • Development of a detailed multiorgan procurement protocol.
    • Establishment of general, specific, and organ-specific criteria for donor evaluation and selection.
    • Implementation of a well-organized combined organ retrieval process.

    Main Results:

    • The proposed protocol provides a framework for efficient donor management.
    • It facilitates collaboration among key stakeholders in the organ donation and transplantation chain.
    • Expected to increase the availability of viable organs for transplantation.

    Conclusions:

    • The implementation of this multiorgan procurement protocol is crucial for addressing organ shortages.
    • It is anticipated to significantly improve organ transplantation outcomes in Europe.
    • Standardized protocols enhance the efficiency and success of organ donation and transplantation programs.
