Abstract

The global demand for organ transplantation is steadily increasing; however, the availability of donor organs remains limited. Optimal management of potential organ donors from the time of brain death diagnosis until the completion of organ procurement is crucial to maximize graft function. This research presents a case series describing three successful cases of brain-dead organ donation conducted at Thong Nhat Hospital. The donated organs included liver, kidneys, heart, and corneas, which were subsequently transplanted at various medical centers. To ensure graft survival, all donated organs must be maintained in a physiologically stable condition until procurement. Providing intensive care and protecting the organs of the donor is the first step toward ensuring a successful transplant in the future.
