ABSTRACT
Organ shortage is a serious problem in the field of solid organ transplantation. Increasing number of death on the waiting list, transplant tourism, black market for organ selling are all caused by organ shortage and these eventually causing poor quality of life for patient and family, and may give rise to a serious confusion in domestic transplant system. Since the KONOS launched in the year 2000, some portion of the illegal side of organ supply were corrected but the number of organ donor was hardly to increase. In order to search any solution for this problem, organ allocation study group under the Korean society for organ transplantation was actively worked from August 2008 through February 2009, and got some solution. Among them, amendment of the transplantation law including brain death committee, reporting system of suspected brain dead patients, and set up an independent organ procurement organization system for an effective organ procurement. Organ donation and increasing the number of donor is not a task only for transplant society, but is closely related with quality of life for peoples. This also can change the execution of budget of national medical health insurance. To give a correct understanding about this and activate the nationwide organ donation, the transplant society should have a key role with various medical and nursing society, hospital association, government, national assembly and every voluntary groups.
