INTRODUCTION: Organ transplantation is gold standard for t end stage organ diseases. Many patients with ESD on the waiting lists, die before treatment. One major reason is the unavailability of suitable organs. In many developed nations, most of these challenges have been or are being surmounted. One major way of surmounting the challenges of the availability of organs shortages is adoption of deceased donor programmes. In sub Saharan countries like Nigeria with poor organ transplantation rate, deceased donor organ transplantation is not in existence. AIMS: An audit of transplantable organs from potential deceased donors from a Nigerian hospital. METHODOLOGY: A prospective study of deaths in the ICU & A&E .Nigeria.Data extracted were the patients’ biodata, social history, diagnosis or indications for admission, time of arrival and time of death, cause of death, associate co-morbid, potential transplantable organs, relations availability at death. RESULTS: There were 114 patients, 104 from ICU and 10 from A&E, 66 (57.9%) males & 48 (42.1%) females. 70.2% were Muslims & 19.8% Christians. The 28.9% were unmaaried & 71.1% married. Yorubas 92.1%; Igbo 6.1%; Hausa 0.9% & Nupes 0.9%. Age ranged between 1month and 85 years. 9.3% a Primary 90.7 atleast secondary school education. The causes of death were myriad. Relations were present at the time of all deaths. The Maastricht classification of the deaths were class I – 1 (0.9%); Class II – 37 (32.2%); Class III – 9 (7.8%); Class IV -20 (17.4%); Class V - 47(40.9%). There were no potentially transplantable organ in 42 (36.5%); 1 organ in 8 (7%); 2 organs -2 (7%); 3 organs -1 (.9%); 4 organs -13 (11.3%); 5 organs -6 (5.2%); 6 organs -11 (9.6%); 7 organs -11 (9.6%); 8 organs – 5(13%) and 9 organs -5 (4.3%). CONCLUSION: Deceased donor sources of transplantable organ is worthy of being exploited to improve organ transplantation in Nigeria.
