Abstract Details

1988, Master of Health Administration, Ohio State University, Health Services Management and Policy.
The purpose of this thesis is to determine if the required request legislation passed in Ohio in 1987, which makes hospital administrators responsible for requesting organ donation of the families of dying patients, increased the number of organs procured in 1987 compared to the same period of time in 1986. The data show that the number of organs procured was increased, however, it cannot be concluded that the increase was due to implementation of the legislature. Since the number of requests made in 1986 is unknown, it is not possible to determine if an increased number of requests led to an increased number of organs procured, or other factors were involved in the increased number.
