In October 2016, a donor action program (DAP) was set up in our hospital for the establishment of a smooth regional organ donation system respecting the patient’s intent to the maximum. DAP consisted of 4 committees: brain death judgement and management, potential donor evaluation, and supervisory. Five multi-disciplinary in-house coordinators were assigned in DAP to share their roles utilizing their specialty. Fourteen cases of potential donors were detected and a proposal for organ donation was made in 12 cases during the year after DAP started. As a result, three cases of eye donation and one case of brain-dead organ donation were carried out.
