Transplantation depends on a donation from a living or deceased donor, with the latter ideally involving a multiorgan transplant. The objective of this study was to determine the factors that influence the attitudes of the population in Mexico toward being a donor.
We conducted an observational, cross-sectional study with a survey on the attitudes toward donation in the population of Mexico. The survey had 33 items on it regarding sociodemographic aspects and people's positions on the issues of organ and tissue donation. We used central tendency and dispersion averages and calculated the difference between groups using chi squares or the Student t test. We also used the statistical program SPSS version 25.
The perception of respondents regarding organ and tissue donation (with 1064 people or 65.1% in favor) points to a lack of knowledge in Mexico. People do not talk about organ donation with their relatives and especially do not discuss their wishes in case of death (only 660 people indicated they had or 40.4%). There is a better attitude toward donation among younger respondents, women, single people, health personnel, people with higher incomes, Catholics, and those who do not have a hospitalized family member.
It is necessary to provide more information about organ donation to people in Mexico. The opinion toward donation is generally favorable; however, there are multiple factors that influence opinions. Family members of patients in intensive care are the least willing to donate themselves or donate a relative's organs.
移植手术依赖于活体或已故捐赠者的捐赠，后者理想情况下涉及多器官移植。本研究的目的是确定影响墨西哥民众成为捐赠者态度的因素。
我们开展了一项观察性横断面研究，对墨西哥民众的捐赠态度进行了调查。该调查有33个关于社会人口学方面以及人们在器官和组织捐赠问题上立场的项目。我们使用了集中趋势和离散平均数，并使用卡方检验或学生t检验计算组间差异。我们还使用了统计软件SPSS 25版。
受访者对器官和组织捐赠的认知（1064人或65.1%表示赞成）表明墨西哥民众缺乏相关知识。人们不与亲属谈论器官捐赠，尤其不讨论他们在死亡情况下的意愿（只有660人表示他们有过相关讨论或占40.4%）。年轻受访者、女性、单身人士、卫生人员、高收入人群、天主教徒以及没有住院家属的人群对捐赠的态度更好。
有必要向墨西哥民众提供更多关于器官捐赠的信息。对捐赠的看法总体上是积极的；然而，有多个因素影响看法。重症监护患者的家属最不愿意捐赠自己或捐赠亲属的器官。
