*For a patient who is a potential organ donor, but does not die within the time required for organ retrieval, do NOT include [[Organ donor (organ/tissue donation by the donor)]] as an acquired diagnosis. The [[Transfer Ready DtTm]] for these patients will be when they are deemed unsuitable for organ retrieval. Consider the usual rules about [[Palliative care]] and [[ACP-C]] coding. | *For a patient who is a potential organ donor, but does not die within the time required for organ retrieval, do NOT include [[Organ donor (organ/tissue donation by the donor)]] as an acquired diagnosis.

*If a MAID patient who dies in ICU or ward becomes a (planned) donor, then the dispo is '''Died - to OR''', i.e. no need to code [[brain death]]. If MAID is provided in the OR, then handle this like DCD (see above) BUT also code [[Medical Assistance In Dying]] as an [[Acquired Diagnosis]] in ICU. | *If a MAID patient who dies in ICU or ward becomes a (planned) donor, then the dispo is '''Died - to OR''', i.e. no need to code [[brain death]].

Another scenario - For a patient who has an acquired diagnosis of [[Organ donor (organ/tissue donation by the donor)]] and [[brain death]] and the harvesting done during the same ICU admission and did not go to OR, then the dispo is '''Died to morgue''' , is this correct? --[[User:JMojica|JMojica]] 16:58, 18 November 2025 (CST) | Another scenario - For a patient who has an acquired diagnosis of [[Organ donor (organ/tissue donation by the donor)]] and [[brain death]] and the harvesting done during the same ICU admission and did not go to OR, then the dispo is '''Died to morgue''' , is this correct? --[[User:JMojica|JMojica]] 16:58, 18 November 2025 (CST) | ||
* Question is under the MAID heading in here but does not necessarily seem to be related to MAID... or is it? [[User:Ttenbergen|Ttenbergen]] 23:20, 18 November 2025 (CST) | |||
* I have a feeling this question comes with context - what were you looking for? [[User:Ttenbergen|Ttenbergen]] 23:20, 18 November 2025 (CST) | |||
** the two items listed here are general questions about organ donor and how to know if the donor happened or not. i just inserted the discussions after the MAID but not meant to be related to MAID. Sorry, I notice how the two comments came out , one with a box and another under it. I tried to change but unsuccessful so I leave them as is. The main goal is to add them to the instruction if making sense. --[[User:JMojica|JMojica]] 09:05, 19 November 2025 (CST) | |||
