Cadaveric Organ Donation

Cadaveric organ donation refers to the process of obtaining organs from a deceased person for transplantation into living patients. When an individual passes away, typically in a hospital setting, and is declared brain dead, their organs may be suitable for donation. This procedure is guided by strict medical and legal protocols to ensure that the donation is ethical and respects the wishes of the deceased and their family. The donated organs, such as the heart, kidneys, or liver, can save or significantly enhance the lives of patients with organ failure.
