Abstract | The prerequisites for post-mortem organ donation in Germany include the determination of irreversible loss of brain function, consent to organ donation, and the exclusion of medical contraindications. In addition, mainly because of the shortage of donor organs in Germany and the sometimes controversial social and media discussions on the topic of organ donation, all physicians involved in the donation process must be familiar with the relevant laws, guidelines, and procedural instructions. This applies especially to those who are to carry out the verification of irreversible brain death. Only then, can they act safely in this challenging situation and serve as competent consultants for all involved. |
