Two of the research questions examine specifically what impacts vulnerability and protection among a sample of 43 individuals living in a community in India. The third research question explores the role of the living organ donor assessment process in the prevention of trafficking. In this dissertation, the theoretical understanding of how choices are made, or not made, particularly by vulnerable individuals, is explored. Qualitative interviews were conducted with persons trafficked for organ removal and persons not trafficked for organ removal who are living within the same socio-economic environment, but who were not all trafficked for organ removal. Study data were analyzed using constructivist grounded theory methods. Findings from this study show that economic, cultural, and social influences affect both protection from and susceptibility to trafficking.

The transplantation of organs is done according to the legal framework of each country and based on rules, regulations, circulars, protocols and guidelines of health and legal authorities. Because of this egregiousness procedure, very clear knowledge and experience regarding medico-legal issues and ethical aspects are mandatory for an effective transplantation system. Here in this article, attempts to critically evaluate the medico-legal and ethical aspects pertaining to the existing system of organ transplantation process in Sri Lanka and compare such local provisions with some other countries. Introduction Transplantation is a medical procedure that restores the function of a person's inactive organ or tissue by replacing it with a healthy one. In some cases, despite great advances in medicine, transplantation is the only option. Transplants greatly improve the patient's quality of life and give them another chance to live.

ABSTRACT The gap between the huge demand for organs and their inadequate supply is the issue of concern. Organ shortage is a global issue and deceased organ donation is the major sustainable way out. There are stringent criteria instituted for the retrieval, preservation, and transportation of donor organs. India slips to the 40th rank in the study of 69 countries in terms of the number of organ transplants per million population. However, the country has significant potential for deceased organ donation due to a higher proportion of fatal road traffic accidents. There are various programs, policy, legislation, organizations including observa- tion of ‘Organ Donation day’ addressing organ donation. From the Transplantation of Human Organ Act to National Organ and Tissue Transplant Organization, each modality promotes organ donation &transplantation. There are various determinants of organ donation especially influencing the decision making for donation. It is the need of the hour to address wherein the process, and for what reason, potential donors fail to become actual donors.

  • Bibliography on Transplantation & Ethics
    Bibliography on Transplantation & Ethics World Health Organization, Ethics, Trade, Human Rights, and Health Law WHO/SDE/ETH Version 2.0 Geneva, Switzerland 27 August 2004 2 INTRODUCTION This bibliography was prepared by Philipp Kellmeyer, a Junior Ethics Fellow from Heidelberg University in our department during August and September 2003, under the direction of Nikola Biller-Andorno, MD, PhD. The bibliography was compiled in preparation for the WHO consultation on "Ethics, access and safety in tissue and organ transplantation: Issues of global concern," held in Madrid from 6-9 October 2003. While this bibliography is not an official WHO document, it has proven very useful in preparing for the consultation and in the department's ongoing work with the Department of Essential Healthcare Technologies (HTP/EHT) in response to resolutions by the WHO Executive Board (in May 2003 and January 2004) and the World Health Assembly (in May 2004). We trust that others will find it useful as well, and we thank Mr. Kellmeyer for compiling it. A.M. Capron Director Department of Ethics, Trade, Human Rights and Health Law AUTHOR'S PREFACE In the course of putting together this bibliography it has become obvious that both topics, transplantation and ethics, are inseparably entwined in highly complex and controversial discussions and discourses. The intention of this collection is therefore to enhance and encourage the trans- and interdisciplinary dialogue on transplantation and ethics by, on the one hand, making available a selection of important scientific and medical references concerning organ and tissue transplantation and, on the other hand, providing references on ethical, social and cultural issues.
