ederal Investigation Reveals Serious Failures in Organ Donation System
- Over 48,000 organ transplants happen each year in the U.S., but alarming new evidence shows that some donations begin before patients are truly dead
- More than 103,000 Americans are waiting for organ transplants, but safety shortcuts in donor evaluation have raised serious questions about how the system operates
- In one case, a man declared brain-dead woke up on the operating table moments before his organs were to be harvested — exposing a massive failure in protocol
- The investigation uncovered that nearly 1 in 3 "approved not recovered" (ANR) donations showed neurological signs incompatible with legal death
- New reforms now require hospitals to halt organ procurement if any sign of life is present and mandate full reporting to federal regulators
