  1. Donor Family Experience Mr Mat Vanes & Jacquie Spencer 9th July 2013 SOUTH WEST

  2. Another family’s story… 3 Organ Donation Past, Present and Future “In 2011, my 16 year-old son Aaron was involved in a road crash, where he sustained fatal head injuries. He was hit at just after 5 pm and his life support machine was turned off at just after midnight. Aaron was a kind and loving child, who had often spoken about organ donation. Obviously we never expected in a million years to be faced with the situation that occurred on that night, but one thing that sticks out in my mind is that we were never asked about donation.”

  3. Another family’s story… 4 Organ Donation Past, Present and Future “I raise this issue as a pointer to the service for the future. I utterly regret that I was not given the chance to “share” Aaron with someone else, to give life from his death. At the time, I needed someone to raise the issue. I simply didn’t have the fortitude to do so and in the context of difficult decisions that night, the decision to donate organs would have been the easiest of all.”

  11. Best Practice in Family Approach and Consent Dr Angus Vincent Northern Regional CLOD SOUTH WEST 12

  12. Where donation potential is lost. • We’ve known for years that low consent rates easily accounts for the biggest loss of potentially transplantable organs in the UK. • No other intervention could increase the availability of organs for transplantation to the extent that an increase in consent to 80% would. Organ Donation Past, Present and Future

  13. PDA 2011/12 Organ Donation Past, Present and Future

  14. 2011/12 data Combined 55% consent 45% family refusal Organ Donation Past, Present and Future

  15. Poor DCD consent rates………… Organ Donation Past, Present and Future

  16. Bottom line – UK Family Refusal Rate is 45% One of the highest family refusal rates in the world Organ Donation Past, Present and Future

  17. Family refusal rates, 2010 Note – limited international data available on family refusal rates Organ Donation Past, Present and Future

  18. BBC DoNation Survey August, 2005 Organ Donation Past, Present and Future

  19. Why do families say no? • Common themes are found • Some amenable to intervention at time of request – so called ‘modifiable factors’ • Less well understood grief reactions are important • Sacrifice • Guardianship of the body • Relationship between body and identity Organ Donation Past, Present and Future

  20. PDA 11/12 – Top 3 Refusal Reasons Organ Donation Past, Present and Future

  21. Consent and the Law • Deceased Donors  Human Tissue Act (2004) • ODR or other applicable advanced directive • Nominated representative • Prior witnessed statement • Consent (or refusal) from an individual in a qualifying relationship • Living Donors (potential DCD)  Mental Capacity Act (2005) Organ Donation Past, Present and Future

  22. First Person Consent • Essentially • ODR • Family discussion • All of our national campaigns etc are aimed at this intervention • Not unanimous that this is the right approach  Organ Donation Past, Present and Future

  23. Problems with first person consent • “He said he didn’t want to be a donor” • “No we can’t be sure what he would have wanted” • Possibly up to 40% of refusals • The ODR is not informed consent • The process of being pressured to choose in life may lead to uniformed negative decisions too. • Registrants on the ODR are not representative of the donor pool ( 3 - 4 x more likely to not be on ODR). Organ Donation Past, Present and Future

  24. Alternative to first person emphasis? • Focus instead on supporting the family and their needs. • Compassion and care. • Understanding and acceptance. • The right information to make the right decision for them. Organ Donation Past, Present and Future

  25. A synthesis of the available evidence surrounding the family approach and consent practice into a clinical guideline. • Clear guidance on the conduct and content of the consent process • Represents principles of good family care in any setting • Sensitive to family needs • Time and privacy • Information in an understandable format • Care and empathy Organ Donation Past, Present and Future

  26. Evidence • Very large body • Qualitative, observational • Audit • Service Development Organ Donation Past, Present and Future

  27. What does the evidence/guideline say about consent? Emphasises • Prior planning • A team approach – involvement of the SNOD and the importance of the presence of a trained individual • Ensuring understanding of death or its inevitability prior to discussion surrounding donation • Provision of the right information in the right way Organ Donation Past, Present and Future

  28. Best Practice Guidance on the Family Approach Dr Angus Vincent 29

  29. Short(ish), summary guidance. Endorsed by the professional bodies. ICS – (Kevin Gunning) FICM – (Julian Bion) Copy to every UK consultant (…….but we’re good at difficult conversations aren’t we?) Organ Donation Past, Present and Future

  30. Approaching the families of potential organ donors The premise of this guideline is simple….. By looking after and supporting our families and providing them with the information they need to make the right decision for them, more of them will say “Yes” to organ donation. Organ Donation Past, Present and Future

  31. Involving the specialist nurse-organ donation • Training and core day to day business • Timing and transition • Information • Language • Modifiable factors • Exploring ‘no’ • Family Support Reluctance amongst some consultants Professional autonomy How to do introduce How to run the conversation Organ Donation Past, Present and Future

  32. Introducing the SN-OD How best to do this? Organ Donation Past, Present and Future

  34. Three discrete stages Family care and support The right information at the right time in the right way Allowing time No aspect of pressure or coercion In absence of prior consent, we must emphasise to the family that the decision is now for them. Organ Donation Past, Present and Future

  37. Confirming understanding and acceptance Donation should not be discussed until the family has accepted the reality of the clinical situation DBD Very strong evidence that failure to comprehend brain death is associated with a ‘no’. Take time. Emphasise death (not its inevitability). Scans and diagrams. DCD Conversation regarding withdrawal of life sustaining treatments. A process but with an end point. More familiar territory. Help understanding that death is inevitable. Organ Donation Past, Present and Future

  39. Transition/ ‘Decoupling’ • At what point to move onto donation? • Same conversation or separate? • Each family is different. • Appreciating when a family have accepted and understood is usually not too hard. Organ Donation Past, Present and Future

  41. Discussing Donation– usually led by SN-OD Give information first, then seek an answer Specific regarding the benefits, using positive language Avoiding apologetic and negative statements Organ Donation Past, Present and Future

  42. Discussing Donation – not on ODR • Open, exploratory questions • Empower the family – it is their decision (legally) • De-emphasise 1st person aspect Organ Donation Past, Present and Future

  43. Raising donation – not on ODR Clip 5 Transition to SNOD not on ODR.mov Embed Clip 5 Or play from video Title 2, Ch 1 17:58 – 19:38 Organ Donation Past, Present and Future

  44. Seeking consent – on ODR • Consent has been given by the patient. • A presumptive, facilitating tone. Organ Donation Past, Present and Future

  46. Key Principles Plan Utilise the SN-OD. Take time to ensure full understanding of the clinical reality. Give information positively Organ Donation Past, Present and Future

  47. Approaching Families – The Movie Organ Donation Past, Present and Future

  48. Summary • Our huge family refusal rate is the main reason patients don’t get the transplant they need. • Evidence would strongly suggest that many refusals are as a result of us failing to get key aspects of the approach right. • A simple 3 stage strategy can ensure our families are cared for and informed. We believe many more will say “Yes” to donation as a result. Organ Donation Past, Present and Future
