So I have shared the procedure to know how organ donation works and please stop spreading fake msg like this 🙏

Procedure for organ donation
Organ donation is the process of donating organs or biological tissue to a living recipient, who needs a transplant. While transplants can save or greatly enhance the lives of other people, this relies on donors and their families agreeing to donate their organ. There are two types of organ donation - living donation and deceased or cadaver donation.

Living donations: For living donors, the process typically involves extensive testing before the donation, including psychological evaluation to find out whether the would-be donor understands and consents to the donation. A transplant may take place only after the donor's medical compatibility with the recipient is confirmed by a doctor. After organ retrieval has taken place, the donor will need to stay under medical care for a few days.

It may be noted that a living donor may only donate a limited list of organs and tissues.

Deceased donations: Here, before a patient can become an organ donor, he/she - who is a victim of a fatal injury to the head - needs to be declared brain dead by a board of medical experts. Brain death is defined as the complete loss of brain function, including involuntary activity necessary to sustain life. A brain-dead person cannot sustain his own life, but his vital body parts can be transplanted into the body of a living recipient. Before the process of organ procurement is carried out, a consent from the deceased donor's family is obtained. Meantime, the donor’s body is kept on a ventilator under special medical care to ensure that his or her organs are in a healthy condition until they are harvested. After the organs are retrieved, the donor's body is surgically restored to as normal an appearance as possible and given back to the family in a dignified way. Organs of deceased donors can be transplanted to terminally ill patients.

How long can donated organs last outside the body in deceased donations?
Healthy organs should be transplanted as soon as possible to the recipient. However, the organs that have been retrieved from a brain-dead person are stored in a chemical solution and have limited life spans, ranging from a few to many hours.

Typical storage times for

Heart: 4-6 hours
Liver: 12-24 hours
Kidney: 48-72 hours
Heart-Lung: 4-6 hours
Lung: 4-6 hours
Storage times vary because of the relative speed at which deterioration begins in the organs' tissues.

Points to remember

There are two ways to donate organs - by pledging for organ donation when a person is alive or by consent of family after death. After a person has pledged to donate, the most important thing that he/she must do is to discuss the decision with your family. This is important because organ donations cannot take place without the consent of the donor's family.

Pledging your organs is a simple procedure. There are some websites like organindia.org,, donatelifeindia.org, etc, through which you can register your wish as a donor.
