The objective of this article is to share how our institution implemented the use of organ donors for surgical education following organ recovery. Despite technological advances, realistic surgical simulation models are lacking, leaving little opportunity to practice a procedure prior to performance on a living patient. Utilization of organ donors following organ donation offers an opportunity for life-like surgical simulation. We developed a pathway to use organ donor tissue in the post-recovery period for robotic simulation. We obtained support from our local Institutional Review Board, Ethics Committee, and organ procurement organization to create a "knowledge donor" program. Our knowledge donation program provided learners hands-on experience with a novel procedure and also provided organ donors another opportunity to express their altruism. We found that the process was well accepted by donor families and learners. We implemented a knowledge donation program at our hospital that provides valuable surgical experience. We discuss future directions for knowledge donation at our institution.
本文的目的是分享我们机构在器官回收后如何将器官捐赠者用于外科教育。尽管技术不断进步，但逼真的手术模拟模型仍然匮乏，使得在活体患者身上进行手术之前几乎没有机会进行操作练习。器官捐赠后利用器官捐赠者提供了进行逼真手术模拟的机会。我们开发了一条途径，在器官回收后的时期利用器官捐赠者组织进行机器人模拟。我们获得了当地机构审查委员会、伦理委员会和器官采购组织的支持，以创建一个“知识捐赠者”项目。我们的知识捐赠项目为学习者提供了亲身体验新手术的机会，也为器官捐赠者提供了另一个表达利他主义的机会。我们发现这个过程得到了捐赠者家属和学习者的广泛接受。我们在医院实施了一个知识捐赠项目，该项目提供了宝贵的手术经验。我们还讨论了我们机构知识捐赠的未来方向。
