Objectives: to analyze, in the light of ecosystem thinking, the actions of nurses that stimulate the potential to increase the rates of organ and tissue donation.
Methods: descriptive, exploratory, mixed method study, of the embedded type, with simultaneous realization and emphasis on the quantitative approach, including 125 nurses from the Intra-hospital Commission for Donation of Organs and Tissues for Transplants in the Southern Region of Brazil. Data were collected using an online survey questionnaire. Quantitative data were analyzed using the Statistical Package for the Social Sciences software; and qualitative, Bardin content analysis.
Results: the identified actions refer to the reception of the family, exclusive dedication and remunerated valorization of the nurses of the commission, media and dissemination campaigns for society in general and educational actions for the training of professionals.
Conclusions: the results of the actions encourage the possibility of increasing the rates of organ and tissue donation for transplantation.

Background: Patient transitions in critical care require coordination across provider roles and rely on the quality of providers' actions to ensure safety. Studying the behavior of providers who transition patients in critical care may guide future interventions that ultimately improve patient safety in this setting.
Objective: To establish the feasibility of using the Theory of Planned Behavior in a trauma environment and to describe provider behavior elements during trauma patient transfers (de-escalations) to non-critical care units.
