Controlled DCD – key elements of the pathway

The Maastricht Category III DCD Pathway

Irreversible loss of circulatory function

Permanent loss of consciousness and respiration

Biochemical collapse and decomposition

ischaemia

Organ retrieval

Organ retrieval after death that follows planned withdrawal of life-sustaining treatments

Controlled DCD – key elements of the pathway

Death on ICU

lack of overall benefit from further treatments

withdrawal

asystole

Multi-organ failure Intolerable disability

diagnosis of death

last offices

As many as 70% of ICU deaths in the UK follow the planned limitation or withdrawal of cardio-respiratory support

Controlled DCD – key elements of the pathway

Impact of DCD on the end of life care

lack of overall benefit

withdrawal

asystole

Multi-organ failure Intolerable disability

diagnosis of death

last offices

lack of overall benefit

delayed withdrawal

asystole

Referral and initial assessment Approach family Continued support Detailed donor assessment and offering Arrival of retrieval team

death death and donation

Controlled DCD – key elements of the pathway

DCD pathway Key considerations

End of life care has to be adjusted if DCD is to be possible

•  Donation considered before death –  Assessment – who can donate?

–  Family approach

•  Requires delay in treatment withdrawal –  ? Physiological instability

•  Altered management of death –  Location of treatment withdrawal

–  Rapid diagnosis of death

–  Rapid transfer to theatre

•  Organ ischaemia and stand down of retrieval

Controlled DCD – key elements of the pathway

50% of DCD retrievals in the UK are stood down.

Controlled DCD – identification of potential donors

Who can be a DCD donor?

Organ Donation Taskforce

In the context of a catastrophic neurological injury, when no further treatment options are available or appropriate and there is no intention to confirm death by neurological criteria, the DTC should be notified when a decision has been made by a consultant to withdraw active treatment and this has been recorded in a dated, timed and signed entry in the case notes. This notification should take place even if the attending clinical staff believe that death cannot be diagnosed by neurological criteria, or that donation after cardiac death might be contra-indicated or inappropriate.

Controlled DCD – identification of potential donors

Absolute contra-indications to DCD (all organs)

•  Age >85 years •  Any cancer with evidence of spread outside affected organ (including lymph

nodes) within 3 years of donation (however, localised prostate, thyroid, in situ cervical cancer and non-melanotic skin cancer are acceptable)

•  Melanoma (except completely excised Stage 1 cancers) •  Choriocarcinoma

•  Active haematological malignancy (myeloma, lymphoma, leukaemia) •  Definite, probable or possible case of human TSE, including CJD and vCJD,

individuals whose blood relatives have had familial CJD, other neurodegenerative diseases associated with infectious agents

•  TB: active and untreated •  HIV disease (but not HIV infection)

http://www.odt.nhs.uk/transplantation/guidance-policies/

Controlled DCD – identification of potential donors

Organ-specific contra-indications to DCD Liver •  Acute hepatitis (Serum AST or

ALT>1000 IU/L if of liver origin) •  Cirrhosis •  Portal vein thrombosis Kidney •  Chronic kidney disease (CKD stage

3B and below, eGFR<45) •  Long term dialysis •  Renal malignancy (prior kidney

tumours of low grade and previously excised would not exclude donation)

•  Kidney transplant (> 6 months previously)

Pancreas •  Insulin dependent diabetes

(excluding ICU associated insulin requirement)

•  Pancreatic malignancy Lungs •  donor age >65 years; DBD donor

age >70 years •  Intra-thoracic malignancy •  Significant, chronic destructive or

suppurative lung disease (those with controlled asthma are suitable donors)

•  Chest X-ray evidence of major pulmonary consolidation

http://www.odt.nhs.uk/transplantation/guidance-policies/

Controlled DCD – family consent

What do families need?

• Confidence that treatment withdrawal and donation are independent

•  Likelihood that donation will be possible

• Minimal delays in treatment withdrawal

Summary

•  MC III DCD embedded into UK donation and transplantation

•  Not restricted to patients dying of acute brain injury

•  The needs of the donor families are rather different compared to DBD

•  Very resource intensive
