Death from unknown causes - Tissue - Deceased Donors

Essential information

Obligatory

Must not donate.

Discretionary

If there is nothing to suggest that the retrieval of the tissues would be hazardous to staff and a post-mortem examination establishes that the cause/s of death would not exclude donation, accept.

Reason for change:

There has been a change to the wording of 'Discretionary' to better reflect the EU Tissue Directive.
