Disparity between solid-organ supply and demand

Article Abstract:

It is unlikely that the US will ever have enough donated organs to meet the demand. Therefore, doctors must focus their efforts on preventing organ failure in the first place. In addition, organ procurement agencies should focus on the 19% of all US hospitals that treat 80% of all potential organ donors. The families of all these potential donors should be asked to give their consent to have the patient's organs donated.
