AbstractThe main goal of intensive care of potential organ donors includes the maintenance of the organs' function with respect to their integrity after transplantation. Profound disturbances of cardiovascular, respiratory and endocrinological function may lead to early organ loss. Therefore, comprehensive therapy is required from the onset of brain death. The major dysfunctions and therapeutic goals in organ donors are summarized on the basis of current literature and our own findings.
