[Organ donation for transplantation. Survey of opinions of physicians and paramedics in the province of Vaud].
In 1987, two media campaigns were organized in Switzerland to promote donor cards. The purpose of this study was to test their impact on the medical community. Questionnaires were sent to qualified practitioners, doctors in training and intensive care nurses. It is concluded that the campaigns for organ donation must be repeated and that their quality can be improved. It is however more urgent to improve the level of knowledge among doctors and other health professionals.
