  • Title: Clinical skin banking: II. Stimulating sources for organ donation.
    Author: Fisher JC, Ninnemann JL, Wachtel TL, Frank HA.
    Journal: J Trauma; 1980 Dec; 20(12):1057-60. PubMed ID: 7005455.
    Abstract:
    Donor source stimulation for a regional skin bank is discussed, emphasizing the importance of coordination with other organ donor programs, centralization of a public information and donor identifying communication system, exploitation of regional legislative precedents which facilitate organ donation, and finally, identification of health professional and related groups with a common interest in matters associated with rational planning for the time of death. The specific problem associated with skin donation, namely, a sensitive description of the technical details of skin harvest, is also considered.
