In this episode of The Black Doctors Podcast, Dr. Steven Bradley, an anesthesiologist, critical care physician, and bioethicist, discusses the complexities and ethical issues surrounding organ donation. Key topics include the structure and oversight of the U.S. organ donation system, the roles of various organizations, and the processes involved in organ matching and procurement. A recent New York Times investigation highlighting ethical concerns in donation after circulatory death (DCD) is deeply analyzed, with a focus on the Misty Hawkins case and other incidents across states. The episode emphasizes the importance of rock-solid ethics in organ donation, ensuring transparent consent, unquestionable death determination, and full support for families. Dr. Bradley also shares his experiences and offers best practices for clinicians to navigate these challenging ethical landscapes.
