Based on public opinion surveys, although 75% of people state that they would donate the organs of one of their relatives, in reality, the rate of the people who donate the organs of their relatives is 24%. To decrease the organ shortage, the key point is to understand the difference between intention and real behavior. For this reason, in this study, analyses of variables related to the potential organ donor families' decisions of approval or refusal for organ harvesting were analyzed. The interviews were conducted with 101 families who made a decision about organ donation between 2010 and 2014. The variables, strongly related with the family decision, are the wishes of the deceased persons about donation, suspicions regarding brain death, the desire to protect body integrity, and the satisfaction levels of the families with the approaches of medical personnel. The findings, obtained from qualitative data, also support the quantitative data. The results indicate that both education of the public about maintaining a positive attitude toward organ donation and education of health professionals can be key factors in decreasing the organ shortage.
根据民意调查，虽然75%的人表示他们愿意捐赠亲属的器官，但实际上，捐赠亲属器官的人的比例为24%。为了减少器官短缺，关键在于了解意愿和实际行为之间的差异。因此，在本研究中，对与潜在器官捐赠者家庭同意或拒绝器官摘取决定相关的变量进行了分析。对2010年至2014年间做出器官捐赠决定的101个家庭进行了访谈。与家庭决定密切相关的变量包括死者的捐赠意愿、对脑死亡的怀疑、保护身体完整性的愿望以及家庭对医务人员处理方式的满意度。从定性数据中获得的结果也支持定量数据。结果表明，对公众进行关于对器官捐赠保持积极态度的教育以及对卫生专业人员进行教育都可能是减少器官短缺的关键因素。
