Background And Objective: The demand of tissue for transplants requires a continuous effort in detecting potential donors and assessing the causes of death. We aimed to assess the capacity to optimise tissue donation rates with the implementation of an active detection system of hospital deaths alongside a comprehensive assessment of the causes of death according to current international and local tissue banks' standards.
Material And Method: An early and pro-active detection programme of hospital deaths was implemented in 2002.
