An organ donor who does not strike was registered at the Santara clinics on Sunday. At this treatment facility, this is the first case of its kind, as the vast majority of cases become organ donors after fixed brain death.

This year there were a total of three donors with stopped heartbeats.

So far, heartbeat donors have been prepared only by doctors from the Kaunas Clinics of the Health Sciences Hospital of the University of Lithuania.

The kidneys from this donor were also suitable for transplantation.

According to the report of the National Transplant Office, a transplant was performed in the Kaunas clinics during the Christmas period.

According to medical indicators, human corneas were suitable for donation.

Family members who have agreed to donate organs and tissues to a loved one should always go to the medical institution and confirm the decision with a signature. Currently, by restricting the movement of people between the country’s municipalities, the relatives of the deceased have been granted special permission to enter Kaunas from another municipality.
