USA: "My Organs, My Choice"

Abstract/Extract

"In 'Examining the Potential Exploitation of UNOS Policies,' Zink et al. (2005) recommend that further restrictions be placed on the practice of directed solid organ donation. In doing so, they equivocate cadaveric donation and living donation. Important distinctions between cadaveric and living donation call into question the objections raised by the authors concerning justice and utility. Although we agree that safeguards should be in place regarding living donation, these safeguards are significantly different from those related to cadaveric donation".
