Abstract:

BACKGROUND: The organ donation coordinator is the backbone to carry out organ donation work and an important guarantee for improving China’s organ donation rate, but achieving the professionalism is the key problem to strengthen the team construction of organ donation coordinators.

OBJECTIVE: This paper tried to explore a tentative probe into the construction of organ donation coordinator occupation on four aspects, namely the importance and connotation of this occupation, current situation and measures.
METHODS: Articles about organ donation and organ transplantation were retrieved from CQVIP, CNKI, Wanfang, Pubmed, Medline, Highwire databases and Foreign Journals Integration System from January 2003 to August 2013 with the key words of organ donation or organ transplantation or coordinator or profession or occupation, body donation, cardiac death in both Chinese and English. After secondary manual retrieval of organ donation coordinator, literature were included if they involved organ donation coordinator and organ donation and transplantation related policies and regulations. Clinical and basic researches were excluded. This paper put forward countermeasures for the construction of organ donation coordinator occupation based on the literature induction, summary and analysis of the current status of China’s organ donation coordinators.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: This paper described the profound connotation, professional requirement and social position of organ donation coordinators, systematically analyzed the existing problems for organ donation coordinator team construction in China, constructed the basic framework of occupational construction of China’sorgan donation coordinator, and summarized the measures for the occupational construction of organ donation coordinators.
