Mrs. Jigisha Yadav started the session by introducing MOHAN Foundation, she explained that MOHAN is not a name of a person;it’s an acronym for Multi Organ Harvesting Aid Network.Then she shared its mission, vision and philanthropy. When she asked the audience what came to their minds about Organ Donation, there were mixed responses. While a few highlighted positive sides, some raised negative sides about the concept of donating organs.
The concept of organ donation was then introduced in detail with explanations about the types of death viz. Cardiac & brain death. She also elaborated about the organs and tissues that can be donated in both the cases. She briefly explained about the concept of brain death along with difference between brain death and coma. Mrs. Jigisha Yadav also discussed the various myths and facts relating to organ donation. Information about organ allocation, and distribution were also shared.
