In the realm of organ donation, the discourse is often characterised by polarising perspectives that demand allegiance to one of two opposing viewpoints: pro or con. However, within this over-simplified (dis)agreement lies a nuanced web of uncertainties. We will focus on arguments discussing a ‘not sure’ position regarding intensive care unit (ICU) admission finalised to organ donation—a stance that demands a careful consideration of factors contributing to its complexity [1]. We will concentrate on one scenario of organ donation; patients where brain death has not yet been determined but curative treatment is considered non-beneficial and who are thus solely admitted to the ICU for the aim to facilitate potential organ donation, also called ‘non-therapeutic intensive care’ [2]. Furthermore, we also focus on aspects that are always more or less relevant irrespective of country-specific particularities such as legal regulations, cultural and religious backgrounds [3]. We present our thoughts based on two relevant professional-ethical concepts: holistic care and patient- and family-centred care. …

Blutdrucksenkung schon im Rettungswagen bei akutem Schlaganfall?

31.05.2024 Apoplex Nachrichten
