説明

【Background】The organ-donation rate in Japan is extremely lower than in other developed countries. Several reasons are responsible for such an unfavorable donation rate, but advanced education for in-hospital procurement coordinators is a possible solution to favorably lessen these influences. Thus we introduced the transplant procurement management (TPM) educational project to Hyogo Prefecture, Japan.<br/>【Method】From 2009 to 2015, ten health-care professionals in Hyogo Prefecture participated in an Advanced International TPM course to learn about TPM educational methods and held TPM-model Organ Procurement Training Workshops in Hyogo Prefecture for in-hospital procurement coordinators. We also conducted a preworkshop questionnaire survey to grasp their abilities and motivations for organ donations. To evaluate our workshops, we also held a postworkshop and 3-months later conducted a workshop questionnaire survey.<br/>【Results】Preworkshop survey revealed that in-hospital procurement coordinators lacked knowledge of the entire organ donation process, the Japanese current status of organ donation, and also of brain death definition. Moreover, they seemed to hardly understand the meaning of organ donation and the lives of organ-failure patients. A questionnaire survey after the workshop showed that our educational project effectively improved the knowledge and skills of these coordinators in regard to organ donation, leading them to more-positive motivation and favorable behavioral changes.<br/>【Conclusion】This survey revealed that our TPM-model educational program offers proper knowledge and skills to increase organ donations in Hyogo Prefecture. We will continue this educational project and make efforts to further contribute to Japanese organ donation activities.
