Özet

Purpose. Emergency departments (EDs) are a new focus of interest in recent years as a possible solution for increasing organ donations, as, EDs are full of missed opportunities. In this study, we aimed to determine the barriers to the identification and referral by emergency medicine physicians (EMPs) of potential brain death (BD) cases.
