Why Does AIIMS Warn That Lack of Brain Death Training Hurts India’s Organ Donation Efforts?
About the Study and Its Findings
Impact on Organ Donation Rates in India
AIIMS researchers observed that even at major hospitals, there is often no fixed curriculum or checklist for certifying brain death. This inconsistency leads to procedural delays and sometimes missed opportunities for organ retrieval. Brain death, defined as the irreversible cessation of all brain activity despite continued heartbeat under ventilator support, is a medico-legal determination that needs standardized medical training and verification.
Medical experts also note that India’s healthcare system faces unique cultural and logistical challenges when it comes to organ donation. Awareness among families and even among medical professionals remains limited. Stronger hospital systems, improved training, and supportive legal frameworks can help bridge this gap and align India’s practices with global best standards.
As Indian-Share-Tips.com Derivatives Pro Tiger Gulshan Khera, CFP®, who is also a SEBI Regd Investment Adviser, observes — “The AIIMS findings underline a broader truth: any system’s efficiency is only as strong as its foundational training. India’s medical ecosystem, like its financial markets, needs robust institutional learning to ensure consistency, trust, and long-term success.”
