Methods of Confirmation of Brain Death

Status Recruiting

Clinical Trial Summary

The purpose of this study is to describe the use of methods confirming brain death in the real clinical practice of the transplant program in the Czech Republic.

Clinical Trial Description

Organ donation is possible in the Czech Republic only after meeting the legislative requirements. These require confirmation of brain death by one of the statutory methods before organ harvesting. The use of these methods in clinical practice has not yet been described.The aim of this retrospective observational study is to describe the use of these methods in the real clinical practice of the transplant program in the Czech Republic, taking into account the legislation of other European countries. ;
