Abstract
Objective: Point out factors that according to health professionals involved in the treatment of potential donors, may influence the process of organ procurement. In addition to presenting incidence data of Brain Death Protocols, organ uptake occurred in the years 2017 and 2018 of the Cacoal Regional Hospital Complex (COHREC). Methods: Cross-sectional, descriptive research with quantitative and qualitative approach. The data collection took place through a questionnaire applied to professionals working for more than six months in COHREC's Red Room and Intensive Care Units (ICU). Results: It was found that the main factors mentioned by the professionals were the non-observation or non-participation of any organ uptake, the lack of professionals, the lack of training of professionals, the lack of equipment and the lack of structure. Final Considerations: Multiprofessional qualification should be sought, not only for diagnosis and maintenance of the potential donor, but for the development of skills related to communication between professional, communication with family members and providing the professional with psychological support and decent working conditions.
