Key Words Death; Organ donation; Children; Donation after circulatory death
Core Tip Donation after circulatory death (DCD) has gained acceptance as a way of increasing the number of organs available for transplantation. In order for DCD to occur, organs must be harvested within 30 or 60 min of withdrawal of support. A tool that predicts time of death after withdrawal of support in children has been created but not validated by an external source. In this study, we apply the newly created Dallas Predictor Tool to an external pediatric sample and show it to be an accurate predictor of death within 60 min of withdrawal of support. The tool would require additional calibration to be a good predictor of death within 30 min.
