The purpose of this webinar is to provide hospitals, organ procurement organizations, and transplant staff with an explanation of the expedited donation after circulatory determination of death (DCDD) opportunities. These opportunities allow for increased donation potential for potential donors and their families. We will discuss the timing needed to allow these donations to occur and the difference in process versus a normal DCDD. At the end of the webinar, regardless of your role, you should understand why expedited DCDD is important and what actions you will be driving forward to provide a successful outcome.
