Knowledge of neonatal organ donation among middle grade (registrar) doctors in tertiary neonatal units

Unlike adult practice, organ donation happens infrequently on neonatal units. With the release of guidelines on diagnosing brainstem death in neonates between 37 weeks’ gestation to two months of age, there is potential to expand the donor pool with neonatal organs. This short research study sets out to determine awareness of the process of organising neonatal organ donation.
