Before any published Belgian law, EU Directive, and/or EU Action Plan, the donor advocate was naturally a member of the transplantation team performing living kidney donation. The need of donor advocacy appeared obvious with liver living donation, which was and is still a risky procedure. Today, it is clear that the donor advocacy must not be limited to living donation but extended to brain-dead and cardiac-dead donation. Nevertheless, its complexity will need experienced persons in the field of organ donation as well as transplantation, while remembering that patients' first right is the right to donate.
在比利时任何已公布的法律、欧盟指令和/或欧盟行动计划出台之前,捐赠倡导者自然是进行活体肾捐赠的移植团队成员。随着活体肝捐赠这一过去和现在仍然具有风险的手术的出现,捐赠倡导的必要性显得很明显。如今,很明显捐赠倡导不应局限于活体捐赠,而应扩展到脑死亡和心死亡捐赠。然而,其复杂性将需要器官捐赠以及移植领域的经验丰富的人员,同时要记住患者的首要权利是捐赠的权利。
