DCD in the United KingdomBackground
• Launched in 2003
• Maastricht III
– Organ retrieval after death that follows planned withdrawal of life sustaining
treatment
– 80% deaths on ICU in UK follow planned treatment withdrawal
• Diagnose death after 5 minutes asystole
• Current prohibition on ante mortem interventions
– Heparin
– Femoral cannulation
• Organ retrieval
– Rapid laparotomy / cooling as standard
– Increasing interest in in situ and ex situ organ resuscitation

Implementation of DCDOrgan Donation Taskforce report
Donation should not be viewed as something
optional, something to be inflicted upon
patients and families after end of life care for
the benefit of a third party.

Implementation of DCDOrgan Donation Taskforce report
Donation should not be viewed as something
optional, something to be inflicted upon
patients and families after end of life care for
the benefit of a third party.
Rather, it should be considered to be a
fundamental component of end of life care
and not denied to patients because they are
dying in the wrong place or in the wrong way.

Implementation of DCDLegal guidance
• In many cases, actions that can facilitate
DCD most successfully will be in the
person’s best interests.
– Blood sampling
– Maintenance of physiological stability
– Delayed treatment withdrawal
– Altered location of treatment withdrawal2009

Implementation of DCDProfessional guidance
• Death can be confirmed after 5 minutes of
complete and continuous absence of
cardio-respiratory function
• Death is confirmed by demonstrating the
absence of neurological function
(respiration, consciousness and brain-
stem reflexes) after 5 minutes of
continuous asystole.2010

Implementation of DCDUK Donation Ethics Committee
Principle 1: Where donation is likely to be a
possibility, full consideration should be given to the
matter when caring for a dying patient.
Principle 2: If it has been established that further life-
sustaining treatment is not of overall benefit to the
patient, and it has been further established that
donation would be consistent with the patient’s
wishes, values and beliefs, consideration of donation
should become an integral part of the patient’s care
in their last days and hours
