[Neuroendocrine disorders in brain-dead donors at the time of multiorgan harvesting].
Changes in the level of antidiuretic hormone (ADH), adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH), somatotropic hormone (STH), follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH), luteinizing hormone (LH), thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH), prolactin (PL), thyroxin (T4), triiodothyronine (T3) and thyroxine-binding globulin (TBG) have been assessed before and during multiorgan excision in 22 donors with brain death. A progressing decrease in ADH blood supply and changes in ACTH, STH, FSH and PL content have been recorded. No regularities have been observed in LH level changes. TSH and thyroid hormone changes were in most cases characterized by a gradual decrease in their plasma levels. A drop in T3 concentration observed at the initial stage of the study was most pronounced with practically normal T4 and TBG values, that also decreased by the moment of heart excision. It has been concluded that brain death is accompanied by a considerable neuroendocrine disfunction and a marked syndrome of low T3 content.
