16. Organ Donation: All patients who meet “clinical triggers” will be referred by hospital and assessed by Gift of Life for donation potential. Tissue Donation: All neonates, infants and children who die and are issued a birth certificate should be referred to Gift of Life Michigan. When Does the Hospital Call Gift of Life?

17. When does the hospital call Gift of Life? What are “Clinical Triggers?” Specific medical parameters which prompt hospital staff to make a referral to Gift of Life on a potential organ donor.

18. Organ donation: Call Gift of Life within 1 hour on:  Vented patients with a neurological injury.  Vented patients being evaluated for brain death.  Patients being considered for withdrawal of medical treatment or ventilator support. Tissue donation: Call Gift of Life within 1 hour of expiration. Any time a family brings up donation, even before a baby is born, please call Gift of Life! Typical NICU & PICU Clinical Triggers

19. CMS requires hospitals to notify the OPO:  Within 1 hour of patient meeting clinical triggers  Within 1 hour of death Hospitals are required to collaborate with Gift of Life to ensure that the family of every eligible decedent is offered the option of donation. Regulatory Agencies

20. Key points of COPs:  Reporting ALL deaths and imminent deaths to the OPO in a timely manner.  The OPO determines medical suitability on a case-by-case basis, regardless of gestational age or weight.  Only an OPO staff member may approach the family of a potential donor for consent for organ, tissue or eye donation. This regulation recognizes that training and skill are required to guide a family through this crucial decision. CMS Conditions of Participation

21. Case Study in Pediatric Donation: Perspectives from a PICU Nurse Laurie Shafer, RN, BSN Assistant Nurse Manager, PICU Hurley Children’s Hospital Flint, Michigan

22. Background  PICU nurse for over 12 years.  Involved in many donor cases.  Early exposure to organ and tissue donation:  Felt uninformed;  Hesitant to release information to Gift of Life!

23. Consider this:  Talking about donation can be uncomfortable.  We must acknowledge that feeling!  We need to see this transition of care as being a mission to save not one life, but to save several instead.  We are also on a mission to carry out a family’s last wishes for their child’s life.  “Donation, simply stated, is a medical option for end of life care.” – Dr. Tom Nakagawa, Wake Forest University

24. Case Study  4-month-old baby, no significant medical history.  Timely referral to Gift of Life through the ED within an hour of patient meeting clinical triggers.  Initial CT showed skull fracture, subdural hematoma, retinal hemorrhage, and soft tissue swelling.  Gift of Life responded on site 1 hour, 20 minutes after the initial referral.

25. Case Communication  Initially, patient was not brain dead and family members were under investigation for child abuse.  Hospital updates called to Gift of Life for two days during treatment.  Coordinator response to changes in neurological status.  Unit re-called Gift of Life with additional clinical triggers.  Initiation of brain death testing, family discussions regarding code status and withdrawal of ventilator support.

26. Case Communication  Family changed code status to DNR prior to declaration of brain death.  Gift of Life huddled with pediatric intensivist and nursing staff.  Collaborative approach process where hospital staff and Gift of Life work together to approach family about donation.  Decision to initially approach for DCD due to change in code status and possible brain death testing.  Family gives authorization for donation on day three of admission.  Patient pronounced brain dead later that day.

27. Approaching the Family  Intensivists direct the care of the child early on along with the other caregivers at the bedside (nursing, etc.)  Be aware of the environment that initial donation information is presented.  Communicate with families in simple, honest, straightforward terms.  Be able to help explain the processes surrounding donation.

28. After Authorization  Patient and mother’s blood samples drawn and sent to Gift of Life lab.  Need both blood samples if patient is less than one month old, or if patient is currently breast fed.  Gift of Life coordinates recovery of organs with local Medical Examiner.  Organs are placed through the United Network for Organ Sharing.  Patient is taken to OR and organs are recovered.

29. Overcoming Barriers  Difficulties drawing adequate blood sample from patient.  Central line clots, difficulty placing new lines.  Abuse case, family custody, and medical examiner involvement.  Important for hospital staff to stay involved in the care process, especially through complications and barriers; it’s important to the family and for maintaining the continuum of care.

30. Life-saving Results  Organs recovered on fifth day after admission.  Six organs recovered, four lives saved!  51-year-old woman received her right kidney  53-year-old woman received her left kidney  3-month-old baby boy received his heart  8-month-old baby boy received his liver, pancreas, and intestines.  Medical examiner investigation completed before release to funeral home.

31. Summary  Refer early, and refer often.  Understand the importance of a collaborative approach.  Maintain communication throughout the donor event.  Provide good family support by remaining involved in the case.  Work together to overcome barriers in a complex case.

32. …to comfort a grieving family …to save another child’s life An opportunity… Neonatal Liver Donation Kyle Kinsey, BS, CPTC Cytonet, LLC

33. An Opportunity NICU & Labor and Delivery An Opportunity NICU & Labor and Delivery If the neonate:  Meets Gift of Life clinical triggers  Is ventilated and terminal  Is “comfort measures only”  Has an APGAR Score of 1 Cytonet liver donation may be possible to help another child’s liver regenerate and treat their disease. Refer through Gift of Life 800-482-4881

34. Urea Cycle Disorder (UCD)  The urea cycle removes nitrogen from the blood, converts it to urea, and excretes it from the body  In UCD, an enzyme deficiency causes the nitrogen to accumulate in the form of ammonia; leaving the body unable to remove it from the blood stream  Toxic levels cause irreversible brain damage, coma and/or death Current Treatment – Liver Transplantation?

35. Liver Statistics Hope and Goal: Liver cell transplantation can be a bridge to transplantation; and hopefully an alternative.

36. Liver Cell Therapy

37. An Opportunity Neonatal Donor Criteria  Live birth – APGAR >1  Gestational age 32 weeks  Weight  1000 gm  Known cause of death  No evidence of maternal high risk behavior

38. When to Call? Vented patient: When being considered for withdrawal of medical treatment or ventilator support. Non-vented patient: Prior to the death Before induction or c-section, if possible.

52. Perspective from a Heart Surgeon  Few life events on earth exceed the realization of love, the miracle of conception, or the emotion of birthing. Babies are naturally embraced by hope, by reflection of what can be, and by promises to keep. I have been driven by the notion that disease should not end the promise of a newborn infant. Transplantation restores the hopes and dreams surrounding these babies and, hence, ranks right up there with the best of life events on earth. It is a genuine re-birthing for a baby dying, and the process is a very fine moment, indeed, for humanity. It is fundamentally good news, and while it may not necessarily even the score for all the tragedy facing our planet, saving a baby always makes a clear statement for what can and ought to be in the universe. As with the babies and their loved ones, my own life assumes new meaning and affirmation in the process. I am compelled by the belief that saving babies is the right thing to do.“ - Dr. Leonard Bailey
