In some countries, the use of normothermic regional perfusion (NRP) techniques has expanded opportunities for the successful recovery and transplantation of organs from deceased donors. In the context of controlled donation following the circulatory determination
of death (cDCDD), NRP protocols enable the rapid restoration of circulation to organs within the abdominal or thoraco-abdominal regions of the body while preventing circulation to the brain. Timely reperfusion of organs via NRP reduces the duration of organ
ischaemia, which can lead to graft failure, while the prevention of cerebral perfusion arguably ensures that the subsequent recovery of organs does not violate the “dead donor rule” (DDR). This fundamental norm of donation ethics holds that recovery of vital
organs must not occur before death and that donation should not be the cause of death.<br>

<div class="e2ma-p-div" style="font-size: 14px; color: rgb(51, 51, 51); margin-bottom: 10px; line-height: 1.5;">
In this talk I will discuss some of the key questions and controversies surrounding the use of NRP in the context of the DDR. These include whether restoration of circulation via NRP invalidates the lawful declaration of death using circulatory criteria; whether
interventions to prevent restoration of cerebral circulation as part of NRP implicate donation in the aetiology of death; and whether the unifying brain-based concept of death can successfully resolve ethical concerns regarding NRP and the DDR.<br>
