The population of Nicaraguan immigrants is growing in North America; however, they have been little analyzed concerning their attitude toward donation and organ transplantation.
To analyze the attitude toward the different types of organ donation among the Nicaraguan population residing in Florida.
Study population. Nicaraguan population residing in Florida (USA).
Population sample over 15 years stratified by age and sex. Instrument valuation. Attitude questionnaires toward organ donation for transplantation "PCID-DTO-Ríos," "PCID-DVR-Ríos," and "PCID-XenoTx-Ríos." Setting for the study. Random selection of people to be surveyed according to stratification. The assistance of immigrant support associations in Florida was required to locate respondents.
Sample composed of 89 participants. In the attitude toward donation of one's own organs after death, 22% (n = 20) were in favor, 41% (n = 36) were against, and 37% (n = 33) were undecided. Regarding the donation of living related organs, 76% were in favor (n = 68), 10% were against (n = 9), and 14% were undecided (n = 12). Finally, regarding attitudes toward the acceptance of organ xenotransplantation, if the results were similar to those obtained with human organs, they were not in favor, with 72% (n = 64) against and 28% (n = 25) doubtful.
The attitude of the Nicaraguan population residing in Florida toward different types of organ donation is unfavorable.
