Abstract
In the area of Naples the rate of organ donation has remained significantly low during the last decades. Three crucial factors are involved in such a phenomenon: 1) the italian laws concerning brain death and organ donation, which have been modified and updated in recent years, especially as far as the consensus is concerned; 2) the organization of general and university hospitals, in particular in the area of the intensive care units, and the specific attitude of both medical and paramedical professionals; 3) the 'culture' of organs donation among the citizens of the Naples area, where an accurate and detailed information and education campaign appears mandatory, but only after a specific campaign selectively dedicated to the health professionals working in the hospitals network.Pubblicazioni consigliate
