Episode Details

Organ donations in the U.S. are evolving, with circulatory death donors now accounting for nearly half of deceased donors. This shift is driven by new technology like normothermic regional perfusion, which preserves organs after the heart stops. However, public confusion and mistrust have grown, particularly after cases of potential donors showing signs of life.
