“…Therefore, it is important that each team member knows his/her role in maintaining the donor potential, improving the distribution of activities related to health care, enhancing the viability of donated organs. 16,17 In this case, what stands out in this study is that the professionals interviewed have not deepened the attributions of their category, as for example, the nurses category (36.4%) that is recognized only in the maintenance of life support, care with venous access, adaptation to mechanical ventilation and control of vital signs, administration of medications and general care. However, beyond what was described by the interviewees, it is up to the nurse to apply the Systematization of Nursing Care, as well as to plan, execute, coordinate, supervise and evaluate all the procedures of the nursing team, which range from performing methodological procedures such as management to the execution of highly complex technical procedures, pre-established by current legislation.…”

“…Thus, we found a deficit of knowledge of the health team about BD protocol, representing a significant risk to the quality of care focused on maintaining the potential donor of organs and tissues for transplantation. 7,16 Maintenance of the potential organ and tissue donor for transplantation is a complex activity that when done inadequately can limit the number of effective donations, as well as the quality of transplanted organs. On the other hand, the health team's knowledge is the instrument for the success and quality of the care provided.…”

“…Some studies in the first group explore the feelings associated with working in situations of death on a daily basis 81,82 or with patients suffering chronic sequelae 83 . The other group of articles refers to the feelings associated with working conditions, exploring how the characteristics of hospital emergency services such as overload, urgency, constantly changing priorities, pressure, and the mismatch between the care they would like to provide and what they actually achieve generates anxiety and distress among the workers 84,85,86 , and many of them reflect on the need to analyze different emotions from the work in order to improve the management and quality of care 27,85 .…”

“…7 Diante dos avanços tecnológicos, nos dias de hoje, é possível fazer a manutenção do corpo do paciente em ME, proporcionando suporte hemodinâmico, como o ventilatório e o cardíaco, possibilitando a doação de órgãos. 8 A equipe precisa conhecer esses cuidados, uma vez que uma assistência eficaz pode resultar em maiores resultados de transplantes. 9 No Brasil, em 2019, foram notificados 11.400 potenciais doadores, sendo as causas neurológicas responsáveis por 85% dos óbitos, dentre estas, o Traumatismo Cranioencefálico (TCE) e o Acidente Vascular Cerebral (AVC) as duas principais.…”
