Description

Six authors led by Rafael Pimentel lay out a protocol to map quality marks for organ donation after death. The world shortfall of organs makes each donation path count, from spotting a donor to the transplant itself. Marks that track quality at each step can show where a system leaks donors. No shared set of marks yet commands broad assent, so the proof base needs a full map first.

The planned review follows a known method for scoping reviews, step by step. Searches will span main health databases plus grey sources, such as theses banks and organ group web sites. Work in any language from 1980 on will count for the map. Two staff will screen and chart each find apart, then merge their charts. The end map should guide states that want a shared mark set.
