உடல் உறுப்பு தானம் ஏன் முக்கியம்..

Organ donation week. உறுப்பு தான வாரம். இந்த ஆண்டு செப்டம்பர் 18 முதல் 24 வரை கொண்டாடப்படுகிறது. இந்த உறுப்பு தானம் வாரம் குறித்த விழிப்புணர்வு ஏன் அவசியம், யாரெல்லாம் உறுப்பு தானம் செய்யலாம் என்பது குறித்து இப்போது தெரிந்துகொள்ளலாம்..

​உறுப்பு தான வாரம் முக்கியத்துவம் என்ன?​

உறுப்பு தானம் என்பது குறித்து பல விழிப்புணர்வு பிரச்சாரங்கள் மேற்கொள்ளப்படுகிறது. உலக உறுப்பு தானம் விழிப்புணர்வு நாள் என்பது ஆகஸ்ட் 13 ஆம் தேதி கொண்டாடப்படுகிறது. இந்தியாவில் உலக உறுப்பு தானம் குறித்த விழிப்புணர்வு நாள் ஆகஸ்ட் 3 ஆம் தேதி கொண்டாடப்படுகிறது. மேலும் தற்போது உலக உறுப்பு தானம் வாரமும் கொண்டாடப்படுகிறது. இவை அனைத்துமே உறுப்பு தானத்துக்காக காத்திருப்பவர்களின் பட்டியல் அதிகரித்துகொண்டே இருப்பதால் அவர்களது தேவையை பூர்த்தி செய்ய இது குறித்த விழிப்புணர்வை அளிக்க வேண்டியிருக்கிறது.

உறுப்பு தானம் மற்றும் மாற்று அறுவை சிகிச்சை என்றால் என்ன?

உறுப்பு தானம் என்பது ஒரு நபரிடமிருந்து ஒரு உறுப்பு அல்லது திசுக்களை அறுவை சிகிச்சை மூலம் அகற்றி மற்றொரு நபருக்கு வைப்பதாகும். நோய் அல்லது காயத்தால் ஒருவர் உறுப்பு செயலிழந்து அல்லது சேதமடைவதை சந்தித்தால் அவருக்கு மாற்று அறுவை சிகிச்சை அவசியம். இவர்களுக்கு மூளைச்சாவு அடைந்தவர்கள் வழியாக அவர்களது உறுப்பு தானமாக பெறப்பட்டு பொருத்தப்படுகிறது. எனினும் உறுப்பு தானம் செய்பவர்களை விட பெறுபவர்களின் எண்ணிக்கை அதிகமாக உள்ளது. குழந்தைகள், ஆண்கள் மற்றும் பெண்கள் இந்த உறுப்பு மாற்று அறுவை சிகிச்சைக்காக காத்திருப்பது குறிப்பிடத்தக்கது.

​என்னென்ன உறுப்புகள் மற்றும் திசுக்களை மாற்றம் செய்யலாம்?​

• காதுப்பகுதி (நடு)
• எலும்பு மஜ்ஜை
• இதய வால்வுகள்
• இணைப்பு திசு

உயிரோடு இருப்பவர்கள் தானமாக அளிக்க கூடிய உறுப்புகள்

உறுப்பு தான சிகிச்சையில் சிறுநீரகம் மற்றும் கல்லீரல் இரண்டையும் உயிரோடு இருப்பவர்களிடம் தான் பெற முடியும். மற்ற உறுப்புகள் மூளைச்சாவு அடைந்தவர்களிடம் இருந்து பெறலாம். இவர்களில் விபத்து காரணமாக மூளைச்சாவு அடைந்தவர்கள் அல்லது நோய்தாக்கத்தால் மூளைச்சாவு அடைந்தவர்களிடமிருந்து மற்ற உறுப்புகள் தானம் பெற முடியும். இதில் வயது முக்கியமில்லை. எல்லா வயதினரும் தங்களை நன்கொடையாளர்களாக கருதலாம். அவர்களின் மருத்துவ வரலாறு மற்றும் வயது , காத்திருப்பு பட்டியலின் படி முன்னுரிமை அடிப்படையில் பொருத்தம் முடிவு செய்யப்படுகிறது.

​இறந்த பிறகு உறுப்புகள் தானம் செய்ய முடியாதா?​

ஒருவர் இறந்த பிறகு செய்ய கூடிய தானம் என்பது கண் தானம் மட்டுமே. மூளைச்சாவு அடைபவரிடமிருந்து மட்டுமே மற்ற உறுப்புகள் தானமாக பெறலாம். ஏனெனில் மூளைச்சாவு அடைந்தால் உடலில் எல்லா உறுப்புகளும் இயங்க கூடும். மூளையை தவிர மற்ற உறுப்புகள் அனைத்தும் பணி செய்யும். இறப்பு என்பது எல்லா உறுப்புகளுமே அதன் பணியை நிறுத்திவிடும் நிலை. அப்போது உறுப்புகள் எதுவுமே செயல்படாது என்பதால் அவை பயனற்றது. உறுப்பு தானம் கொடுக்க விரும்புபவர்கள் மூளைச்சாவு நிலையில் மட்டுமே அளிக்க முடியும். இறந்த பிறகு கண் தானம் மட்டுமே கொடுக்கும்.

​உறுப்பு தானம் விழிப்புணர்வு ஏன் அவசியமாக உள்ளது?​

இன்றைய நிலையில் உதாரணத்துக்கு சொல்வதனால் வருடத்தில் 1 இலட்சம் பேர் சிறுநீரக தான த்துக்காக காத்திருந்தால் அதில் 5- 10 ஆயிரம் வரை மட்டுமே இந்த உறுப்பு தானம் பெறப்படுகிறது. இதை அதிகரிக்கும் வகையில் இந்த உறுப்பு தானம் குறித்த விழிப்புணர்வு கொண்டாடப்படுகிறது. சில நேரங்களில் மூளைச்சாவு அடைந்தாலும் கூட சிலர் உறுப்பு தானம் செய்ய தயங்குகிறார்கள். எங்கள் குடும்பத்தில் யாரும் இதை செய்ததில்லை. மூளைச்சாவு அடைந்தாலும் இருக்கும் வரை இருக்கட்டுமே. சடங்குகள் செய்வது சிரமம் என இப்படியான காரணங்களை சொல்லி அதை தவிர்ப்பவர்களும் அதிகம். மக்களிடம் இது குறித்து விழிப்புணர்வு அதிகரிக்க வேண்டும் என்பதற்காகவே உறுப்பு தானம் நாள், வாரம் என்று கொண்டாடப்படுகிறது.

Importance of Organ Donation Essay (Critical Writing)

Most people see dilemmas when handling matters concerning organ donation and transplantation. In a real sense, this issue can, and still sounds difficult if we don’t try to be realistic. Depending on our different cultural beliefs, many people oppose the idea of organ donation. However, some view organ donation as a heroic decision and socially acceptable activity based on the notion of helping to save a life. Such positive notions and beliefs about organ donation must be advanced to increase the number of those signing up for organ donation programs in Michigan and other states. The government has tried its best to help and boost organ donation through a number of initiatives, and people would be helpful if they considered the importance of organ donation and responded positively. In Michigan, people willing to donate organs can now freely do so by starting to give their names to the Michigan Organ Donor Registry (Department of State, 2008).

Considering the huge number of people in need of different body organs today, and the many that are dying each day due to organ problems, a socially upright member of our society should not consider it a big issue to donate an organ to a recipient who is in danger of dying.I really consider it a life-saving process that everyone should also heed. Data is alarming on the number of organ recipients. According to the UNOS-United Network for Organs Sharing-research, every 16 minutes, a new name is added to the national transplant waiting list. The same source indicated that there were about 53,000 patients waiting for transplantation. That was by 1998. A huge number of Americans totaling 55,000 are awaiting organs recipient. In 1996 almost 1000 people died waiting liver transplantation in America and more than 9,800 are waiting it currently.This means that without having good hearted people willing to donate organs to the needing recipient there is a danger of loosing many people each year as a result of organic problems (Prange, 1998). Currently, Michigan is in dire need of volunteers who wish to save life by rendering their organs for donation.

It’s actually important and very necessary to do anything to make sure that you help to have somebody survive death.According to our different religion backgrounds, we are taught the importance of life and that’s why I consider it important to help those in need of different organ problems, by rendering our parts to help them live. It is time people did away with the negative notions and questions posited against organ donating, and possibly consider it in a different perspective-such as if they were the recipient. When handling such issues like organ donation, many questions may arise in our mind, such as what would happen to our tender bodies after some of our organs are taken out? It’s actually a shock to many, but if we look into our society, many people who have donated organs are there and breathing well. It is amazing that someone may think twice while donating an organ yet the same person would not do so to receive one.

In my opinion, we all should some times be at a position of doing what we would like others to do for our selves. This is an important initiative that would make our society to grow. It’s always good to help those in need than to need help. That does not mean that we should not care while donating our organs. We are still responsible and whole responsible for our lives. After all, no body has an extra organ and therefore the issue must be viewed at the perspective of donor’s sacrifice. Therefore, there are different things that we should consider before donating our organs to recipients. Such include our current health status and the status after donation. By doing so, we are at a better position of examining it, and coming up with a clear decision on whether to give or not. For example, there would be no need for a medically fit person to donate a body organ to save life and after some few days die. Also the state of mind as far as the donation is concerned. Is your mind ready to help by donating? Brain is the controller of every thing in the human body and so it might happen that without the consent of brain, some things as crucial as surgical operations that are a must during transplantation would bring out issues. But what could save a great deal is the changing of our attitudes to accommodate organ donation in our lives.

The final decision to donate an organ may be influenced by a wide range of factors. It is a good idea to consult medical experts before engaging yourself in organ donation for medical advice. Doctors may advise you to go ahead and donate, or drop your idea if at all your body is not at a position of donating. They may also advise on the type of meals that a donor of an organ should feed on to avoid future injuries in the body.

Sharing ideas of your intention to donate with friends and relatives is another important issue. Members of the family willing to donate an organ or at a position to must be spoken to before the donation (Hubpages, 2010), and if a positive word is given, this person may give in. By doing so one is at a position of hearing their views as far as this mater is concerned.

Having known scientific facts that an organ of a person about to die with an early harvesting and proper preservation can be transplanted to a recipient, I find it important to be done, but with the owners consent. Saving a life is good than to loose two. And if one is in any way going to die in few hours, I think it’s necessary to use that chance to ensure that another life is saved. It is a good thing for people to know the importance of organ donation as a way of saving live.

Organ donation is the most tremendous gift one can receive today. Everyone should put this into consideration. It’s a socially upright thing to think of becoming an organ donor, since nobody knows if you may estate from being an organ donor today and tomorrow becomes an organ recipient.

To those that have in one way or the other received or given their body organs, they portray a good heroic example of human acts since, for example, one organ from one person can save up to 50 people (MedlinePlus, 2009). This can lead to saving many lives that would otherwise have been lost. In Michigan, a positive attitude towards organ donation would assist the many people in need, and would be a heroic move.

I want to call upon people to save life today by signing for organ donation. This is not enough. A call to every one to join in donating and campaigning to mobilize the mass on the importance of it, and this is an extended hand. Further more, such disasters can only be eliminated by nothing lesser than rendering our bodies for this cause.

People are not aware yet. Consider it wrong. Many people do not even register to donate organs during their lifetime. People suffering from cancer, AIDS, infection, sepsis, or any serious illness cannot give an organ.

Organ donation process

A. living organ donor.

Comprehensive medical investigations are required before donating organs to living donors. It also includes the psychological evaluation of the donor to ensure that he or she understands the consequences of the donation and wants to consent to it.

b. Dead donor

With deceased donors, it is first verified whether or not the donor is dead. Death is usually confirmed many times by neuro physicians when it is determined that any part of it can be donated.

After death, they placed the body on a mechanical ventilator to ensure that the organ remains in good condition. Most organs function outside the body for only a few hours and thus ensure that they reach the recipient immediately after removal from the body.

Difference between demand and supply

The need for physical organs is much higher than the number of donors around the world. Every year many patients die while waiting for donors.

Statistics show that the average annual kidney demand in India is two lakhs, while only 6 thousand kidneys are received. Similarly, the average annual market for the heart is 50 thousand, whereas only 15 are available.

I order to increase the number of donors for organs; there is a need to create awareness among the public for donating organs.

Towards this end, the government has also taken some steps like spreading awareness through TV and the Internet, though we still have a long way to go to bridge the gap between demand and supply.

The black market of organs selling

On the one hand, where we are promoting organ donation, its theft has also happened a lot. Nowadays, the theft and black marketing of organs has increased in India.

In government-private hospitals, patients’ kidneys (kidneys), and other organs are being stolen from the nexus of the doctors.

Fake Organization

Many such organizations are active in many states who steal the organs of innocent spears. Such theft is done during the operation.

The organs are sold in foreign patients at high prices. A case of fraud continues to be exposed every day. Weak, vulnerable sections become the most victims of it.

People with plentiful money are ready to pay any cost to the limbs to save their lives. Doctors also keep stealing organs by being lured by money. Thousands of foreign patients come to our country every year, which has some part or two.

Flexibility in Law

Taking advantage of the flexible law of organ transplantation in the country, such people gain organs corruptly. Some poor patients sell their organs for money, but some are fraudulently removed.

Price of organs in the black market

Kidney – 5 to 10 lakhs Bone marrow – 2.5 million Surrogacy (rental womb) – 10 to 20 lakhs Lever – 5 to 10 lakh Heart – above 20 lakhs Cornea – 1.5 million One inch skin – according to 42 thousand rupees

What happens to organs?

Doctors quickly transplant these organs into any patients who have already needed them. Organ transplant hospitals have a waiting list. According to him, the organ is put in the patient whose number is there.

The blood group and many other tests are done for matching while performing the organ. If everything is fine, then the organ is put in, and if the match is not there, then it is matched with the next patient on the waiting list.

Time Duration for Transplant

• The liver should be transplanted within 6 hours of removal.
• The kidney should be taken within 12 hours.
• Eyes should be installed within three days.

Organ donation can save a person’s life. Its importance should not be ignored. A proper system should be encouraged to donate the organ. I hope you will like this essay on organ donation.

In case of the deceased donors, it is first verified that the donor is dead. The verification of death is usually done multiple times by a neurologist. It is then determined if any of his/ her organs can be donated.

After death, the body is kept on a mechanical ventilator to ensure the organs remain in good condition. Most organs work outside the body only for a couple of hours and thus it is ensured that they reach the recipient immediately after removal.

Gap between Demand and Supply

The demand for organs is considerably higher than the number of donors around the world. Each year several patients die waiting for donors. Statistics reveal that in India against an average annual demand for 200,000 kidneys, only 6,000 are received. Similarly, the average annual demand for hearts is 50,000 while as low as 15 of them are available.

The need for organ donation needs to be sensitized among the public to increase the number of donors. The government has taken certain steps such as spreading awareness about the same by way of TV and internet. However, we still have a long way to go.

Organ donation can save a person’s life. Its importance must not be overlooked. A proper system should be put in place for organ donation to encourage the same.

Essay on Organ Donation in 400 words

Organ donation is the process of allowing organ or tissue to be removed surgically from one person to place it in another person or to use it for research purpose. It is done by the consent of donor in case he is alive or by the consent of next of kin after death. Organ donation is encouraged worldwide.

Kidneys, liver, lungs, heart, bones, bone marrow, skin, pancreas, corneas, intestines and skin are commonly used for transplantation to render new life to the recipient. Organ donation is mostly done after the donor’s death. However, certain organs and tissues such as a kidney, lobe of a lung, portion of the liver, intestine or pancreas can be donated by living donors as well.

Organ Donation Consent Process

There are two types of consents when it comes to organ donation. These are the explicit consent and the presumed consent.

• Explicit Consent: Under this the donor provides a direct consent through registration and carrying out other required formalities based on the country.
• Presumed Consent: This does not include a direct consent from the donor or the next of kin. As the name suggests, it is assumed that the donation would have been allowed by the potential donor in case consent was pursued.

Among the possible donors approximately twenty five percent of the families deny donation of their loved one’s organs.

Organ Donation in India

• Legalised by Law

Organ donations are legal as per the Indian law. The Transplantation of Human Organs Act (THOA), 1994 enacted by the government of India permits organ donation and legalizes the concept of brain death.

• Documentation and Formalities

The donor is required to fill a prescribed form. The same can be taken from the hospital or other medical facility approached for organ donation or can be downloaded from the ministry of health and family welfare government of India’s website.

In case of a deceased donor, a written consent from the lawful custodian is required in the prescribed application form.

As is the case with the rest of the world, the demand of organs in India is much higher compared to their supply. There is a major shortage of donated organs in the country. Several patients are on the wait list and many of them succumb to death waiting for organ transplant.

The government of India is making efforts to spread awareness about organ transplant to encourage the same. However, it needs to take effective steps to raise the number of donors.

Essay on Organ Donation in 500 words

Organ donation refers to the process of giving organs or tissues to a living recipient who requires a transplant. Organ donation is mostly done after death. However, certain organs can be donated even by a living donor.

The organs that are mostly used for the purpose of transplant include kidney, liver, heart, pancreas, intestines, lungs, bones and bone marrow. Each country follows its own procedure for organ donation. Here is a look at how different countries encourage and process organ donation.

Organ Donation Process – Opt In and Opt Out

While certain countries follow the organ donation opt-in procedure others have the opt-out procedure in place. Here is a look at the difference between these two processes of organ donation:

• Opt In System: In the opt-in system, people are required to proactively sign up for the donation of their organs after death.
• Opt Out System: Under this system, organ donation automatically occurs unless a person specifically makes a request to opt out before death.

Organ Donation in Different Countries

India follows the opt-in system when it comes to organ donation. Anyone who wishes to donate organs needs to fill a prescribed form available on the Ministry of Health and Family Welfare Government of India’s website.

In order to control organ commerce and encourage donation after brain death, the government of India came up with the law, The Transplantation of Human Organs Act in the year 1994. This brought about a considerable change in terms of organ donation in the country.

Spain is known to be the world leader in organ donations. It follows the opt-out system for organ donation.

• United States

The need for organs in the United States is growing at a rapid pace. Though there has been a rise in the number of organ donors, however, the number of patients waiting for the organs has increased at a much higher rate. Organ donation in the United States is done only with the consent of the donor or their family. However, several organizations here are pushing for the opt-out organ donation.

• United Kingdom

Organ donation in the United Kingdom is voluntary. Individuals who want to donate their organs after death can register for the same.

This is the only country that has been able to overcome the shortage of transplant organs. It has a legal payment system for organ donation and is also the only country that has legalized organ trade.

Organ donation is quite low in Japan as compared to other western countries. This is mainly due to cultural reasons, distrust in western medicines and a controversial organ transplant that took place in 1968.

In Columbia, the ‘Law 1805’ passed in August 2016, introduced the opt-out policy for organ donation.

Chile opted for the opt-out policy for organ donation under the, ‘Law 20,413’ wherein all the citizens above the age of 18 years will donate organs unless they specifically deny it before death.

Most of the countries around the world suffer from low organ donor rate. The issue must be taken more seriously. Laws to increase the rate of organ donation must be put in place to encourage the same.

Essay on Organ Donation in 600 words

Organ Donation is the surgical removal of a living or dead donor’s organs to place them in the recipient to render him/her a new life. Organ donation has been encouraged worldwide. However, the demand of human organs far outweighs the supply. Low rate of organ donation around the world can be attributed to various reasons. These reasons are discussed below in detail.

Teleological Issues

The moral status of the black market organ donation is debatable. While some argue in favour of it others are absolutely against the concept. It has been seen that those who donate their organs are generally from the poor section of the society and those who can afford these are quite well off. There is thus an imbalance in the trade.

It has been observed that those who can purchase the organs are taking advantage of the ones who are desperate to sell. This is said to be one of the reasons for the rising inequality of status between the rich and the poor. On the other hand, it is argued that those who want to sell their organs should be allowed to do so as preventing them from it is only contributing to their status as impoverished. Those who are in favour of the organ trade also argue that exploitation is preferable to death and hence organ trade must be legalized. However, as per a survey, later in life the living donors regret their decision of donating their organs.

Several cases of organ theft have also come forward. While those in support of the legalization of organ market say that this happens because of the black market nature of trade while others state that legalizing it would only result in the rise of such crimes as the criminal can easily state that the organ being sold has not been stolen.

Deontological Issues

These are defined by a person’s ethical duty to take action. Almost all the societies in the world believe that donating organs voluntarily is ethically permissible. Many scholars believe that everyone should donate their organs after death.

However, the main issue from the standpoint of deontological ethics is the debate over the definitions of life, death, body and human. It has been argued that organ donation is an act of causing self harm. The use of cloning to come up with organs with a genotype identical to the recipient is another controversial topic.

Xenotransplantation which is the transfer of animal organs into human bodies has also created a stir. Though this has resulted in increased supply of organs it has also received a lot of criticism. Certain animal rights groups have opposed the sacrifice of animals for organ donation. Campaigns have been launched to ban this new field of transplantation.

Religious Issues

Different religious groups have different viewpoints regarding organ donation. The Hindu religion does not prohibit people from donating organs. The advocates of the Hindu religion state that it is an individual choice. Buddhists share the same view point.

The Catholics consider it as an act of love and charity. It is morally and ethically acceptable as per them. The Christian Church, Islam, United Methodists and Judaism encourage organ donation. However, Gypsies tend to oppose it as they believe in afterlife. The Shintos are also against it as they believe that injuring a dead body is a heinous crime.

Apart from this, the political system of a country also impacts organ donation. The organ donation rate can increase if the government extends proper support. There needs to be a strong political will to ensure rise in the transplant rate. Specialized training, care, facilities and adequate funding must be provided to ensure a rise.

The demand for organs has always been way higher than their supply due to the various issues discussed above. There is a need to focus on these issues and work upon them in order to raise the number of organ donors.
