The Dark Side of Tissue Donation by Christopher Truitt Pdf

Told from the perspective of an industry insider and donor father, The Dark Side of Tissue Donation provides a unique, emotional, and disturbing perspective on tissue donation. Chris shares what the tissue banks don't want you know; information that has for too long been too taboo to speak of, but information that every donor family must know before the choice to donate is made. You'll learn what it's like to be a donor father procuring tissues from other donors. You'll find out what it takes to make it through a day in the life of a procurement technician. You'll also be exposed to information that only those within the industry have been allowed to know; what really goes on behind the closed doors of operating rooms and corporate board rooms. Profiteering, a body's worth, industry abuses, informed consent, organs and tissues for illegal immigrants, minorities and donation - nothing is too controversial and Chris covers it all. Get ready to find out what really happens in The Dark Side of Tissue Donation.

Organ and Tissue Donation for Transplantation by Jeremy R. Chapman,Mark Deierhoi,Celia Wight Pdf

'Organ and Tissue Donation for Transplantation' is a unique book bringing together detailed analyses of the problems surrounding organ and tissue donation. The increasing number of organs that can be transplanted and the rising number of patients on waiting lists have reached the point where availability of organ donors has surpassed the immunological problems as the major challenge for transplantation. In direct response to these problems, this book addresses all aspects of organ and tissue donation and the methods used to increase donation. 'Organ and Tissue Donation for Transplantation' examines the many different approaches, both at legislative and individual levels, to improve donor rates. The inclusion of a technical section considers the practical aspects of donation and testing to prevent the transmission of disease for living organ donation, cadaver organ donation and tissue and bone marrow donation. Legal and social aspects are considered extensively, as are the various strategies used around the world to increase organ donation, from the United States and Australia, to Spain and the rest of Europe. This book will prove to be an invaluable guide for all transplant co-ordinators, organ procurement agencies, transplant units and intensive care units where knowledge of organ and tissue donation is required.

Essentials of Tissue and Cells Banking by George Galea,Marc Turner,Sharon Zahra Pdf

It has been 10 years since the first edition of ‘Essentials of Tissue Banking’ has been published. There is still relatively little published on the technical and scientific principles on routine tissue and cell banking based on scientific principles. The 1st edition was very successful and, after a 10 year gap, there is a need of an update and an expansion of the book’s remit. The format of the book follows that of the previous edition- split into 5 sections. Management of donors and the banking of common tissues and cells; Principles of storage and processing of tissues and cells; Ensuring the safety of the products by testing the donor, the tissues and the environment, supported by a quality system and an IT infrastructure- all working within the constraints of current regulatory and ethical environments. This edition however provides a significant update. Many the chapters have been completely rewritten by different experts. Like the 1st edition, they were given a free hand in the way they wrote their chapter, with a guideline that they had to be concise, clear and up to date. The authors were also asked to provide the scientific and technical basis that provides the rationale of the processes they describe. Also, the scope of the book has been somewhat extended. In view of the fact that many cellular therapies are now routinely practiced, 2 new chapters have been added: one on the banking of haematopoietic stem cells and one on human embryonic stem cells. They have been deliberately chosen to illustrate the extreme spectrum of cellular therapies from one of the simplest to one of the most complex. The intention of the book has remained the same: to cover and update banking of current practices in essential tissue and cell banking. It is therefore hoped that by keeping the book as concise and up to date as possible, it will find a place on the shelves of many tissue establishments.

Guide to the Quality and Safety of Tissues and Cells for Human Application by European Directorate for the Quality of Medicines & Healthcare Pdf

This guide provides state-of-the-art information in order to maximise the quality and minimise the risks during donation, procurement, testing, processing, preservation, storage and distribution of tissues and cells. As with all transplanted material of human origin, tissues and cells carry risks of disease transmission, which must be controlled by the application of scrupulous donor selection criteria (including testing) and comprehensive quality systems. The idea behind this guide is to help professionals on a practical level by providing generic guidance that will help improve the rate of successful clinical application of tissues and cells. The guide makes reference to EU mandatory requirements where appropriate and describes generally-accepted good practice. It has been divided into two parts. Part A contains general requirements applicable to all establishments involved in the donation, procurement, testing, processing, preservation, storage and distribution of tissues and cells. Part B contains specific guidelines and requirements for the different tissue and/or cell types

Living Kidney Donation by Krista L. Lentine,Beatrice P. Concepcion,Edgar V. Lerma Pdf

This book provides a complete guide to the evaluation, care, and follow-up of living kidney donors. Living donor kidney transplantation is established as the best treatment option for kidney failure. However, despite the tremendous benefits of living donation to recipients and society, the outcomes and optimal care of donors themselves have received relatively less attention. Fortunately, things are changing – including recent landmark developments in living donor risk assessment, policy and guidance. This volume offers authoritative, evidence-based guidance on the full range of clinical scenarios encountered in the evaluation and care of living kidney donors. The approach to key elements of risk assessment, ethical considerations and informed consent is accompanied by recommendations for patient-centered care before, during, and after donation. Advocacy initiatives and policies to remove disincentives to donation and advance a defensible system of practice are also discussed. General and transplant nephrologists, as well as related allied health professionals, can look to this book as a comprehensive resource addressing contemporary clinical topics in the practice of living kidney donation.

Stem Cells and the Future of Regenerative Medicine by Institute of Medicine,Board on Neuroscience and Behavioral Health,National Research Council,Division on Earth and Life Studies,Board on Life Sciences,Committee on the Biological and Biomedical Applications of Stem Cell Research Pdf

Recent scientific breakthroughs, celebrity patient advocates, and conflicting religious beliefs have come together to bring the state of stem cell researchâ€"specifically embryonic stem cell researchâ€"into the political crosshairs. President Bush's watershed policy statement allows federal funding for embryonic stem cell research but only on a limited number of stem cell lines. Millions of Americans could be affected by the continuing political debate among policymakers and the public. Stem Cells and the Future of Regenerative Medicine provides a deeper exploration of the biological, ethical, and funding questions prompted by the therapeutic potential of undifferentiated human cells. In terms accessible to lay readers, the book summarizes what we know about adult and embryonic stem cells and discusses how to go about the transition from mouse studies to research that has therapeutic implications for people. Perhaps most important, Stem Cells and the Future of Regenerative Medicine also provides an overview of the moral and ethical problems that arise from the use of embryonic stem cells. This timely book compares the impact of public and private research funding and discusses approaches to appropriate research oversight. Based on the insights of leading scientists, ethicists, and other authorities, the book offers authoritative recommendations regarding the use of existing stem cell lines versus new lines in research, the important role of the federal government in this field of research, and other fundamental issues.
