A mechanic working on a fancy Harley of the local cardiac surgeon shouted to the doctor across the garage, "Hey, Doc, can I ask you a question?" The surgeon a bit surprised, walked over to the mechanic working on the motorcycle. The mechanic straightened up, wiped his hands on a rag and asked, "So Doc, look at this engine. I open its heart, took the valves out, fix 'em, put 'em back in, and when Im finished, it works just like new. So how come I get such a small salary and you get the really big bucks, when you and I are doing basically the same work?" The surgeon paused, smiled and leaned over, and whispered to the mechanic... "Try doing it with the engine running."

The definition of an organ o An organ is a structure in a animal that performs a specific function o Name a few examples

Examples of organs in the body

What is the largest organ in the body? Hint. It weights 9 lbs, 21 sq ft

What is a tissue? A group of similar cells which act together to perform a particular function Some examples

Cartilage in the Human body

Bone Marrow and Blood Products

View the power point below

Types of donors? Cerebral (Brain Dead) Death Cardiac Death Living Donors Deceased Donors (No viable organs)

Brain Death and Coma All Brain tissue is Dead No blood flow to the brain No electrical activity in the brain NO CHANCE OF RECOVERY A portion of the brain is injured Brain is still receiving blood flow Electrical activity is present Recovery MAY be possible

Deceased Donors: Brain Death Maintained on a ventilator---- artificial heart beat Possible Donations Heart, Pancreas, Lungs, Intestine, Liver, Kidneys, Bone, Corneas, Heart Valves, Skin, Arteries/Veins, Tendons, Cartilage, Bone Marrow, Blood Process Organs are removed in an operating room while the heart function is maintained with life support.

Deceased Donors: Cardiac Death No cardiac or respiratory function Possible Donations Heart/valves, Bone, Corneas, Skin, Arteries/Veins, Tendons, Muscles, Cartilage Process Retrieved in a sterile setting, can be up to 24 hours

Living Donors: Living individuals who may or may not be related to the recipients. Can start a donor chain Possible Donations Kidney, Partial liver, partial lung, bone marrow and blood Process Potential donors undergo screenings and compatibility testing.

Living Donations Lets read the information on Living Donation, handout page 18 http://www.pinnaclehealth.org/Conditions- Treatments/Services/transplant/Patient-Stories/Why-I- Chose-to-Give-the-Gift-of-Life-Steven-Turn.aspx http://www.donors1.org/livingdonation/livingdonationresourc es/

Matching and Compatibility (Hand out) Three tests are done to determine the best match A blood test Cross Match HLA or Tissue Typing

Paired Kidney Exchanges ( page 19) Non-directed Donation & Donor Chains

Donor chain?

What are the risks for the Donor? (Page 21) Mortality Rates Life Expectancy Complications Recovery Time

How does the waiting List work? In order to best understand how a waiting list works, lets look at the handout, page 17 http://www.donors1.org/patient/waitinglist/ Average Median Wait Time to Transplant Kidney 5 years Liver 11 months Heart 4 months Lung 4 months Kidney / Pancreas 1.5 years Pancreas 2 years

Rejection of an organ or tissue Read III.B Background: Science handout

(Agree/Disagree) Would you advocate to make OTDA mandatory in school curriculums. (Agree/Disagree)

Students will read some of the Real Life Stories in class Toms Real Life Story Joyces Real Life Story The gift of Grace David DAgostino Daryl Dancy Zachary Sweitzer A Recipients Story The importance of saying Yes Jeff Harolds Transplant Story Nicholas Green

The Decisions of a Lifetime Decision Making is the cognitive process of making a choice or decision

Types of Decisions Personal- focuses on how it effects you as a person. (EX. Is it Healthy, Safe, Legal, Respectful, Parent Approved, Does it demonstrate good character) Social- involves considering those effected by the decision (family, friends) Economical-involves the financial options Technical-focuses on the procedure or means to carry out the decision

The Decision Making Format Using the format handout, practice making decisions related to organ and tissue donation by choosing one of the following: (Next slide) Should I make a commitment to become a deceased organ donor ? Should I try to convince my family and friends to sign a donor card for deceased donation? Should I consider becoming a living donor when I am older?

How will living donation effect my life? Will a living or deceased donation effect my family? If I donate will it effect society? How will donation effect my religious belief? Do I have confidence in the medical staff? Below are examples of things to consider when making decisions about donation.

School Surveys Students will create a simple OTDA survey to be given first to the staff, and then students with administration approval. The surveys will be handed out and collected by Mrs Koleno, then students will graph the survey results.

Bulldog News Clips In groups of 3-4 you will pick a topic from the following list (Next Slide) Once you have your topic, you will put together a video clip to be broadcast on the Bulldog News. The outline for information will be given to each group. After you have your rough draft, have it approved by Mrs Koleno.

Topics for the Bulldog News Types of donation, (living, deceased) What organs can be donated What tissues can be donated What is the difference between an organ and a tissue How to become an organ and tissue donor What are the benefits of organ and tissue donation How is it decided who receives the organs and tissues What is a waiting list

Rubric for the Bulldog News Video Clips The clips should be a time frame of 30 seconds- 1 minute Make sure you include all group members Give factual information only Make sure you are loud and clear If you use visuals, make sure they are readable and appropriate for the school audience.
