In short
Brain death is notified to the family by to whom, and at which hour, it was said that the death was entered on the record. This notice is a line separate from the determination minute. Consent to organ donation is a third paper. A claim of pressure is not written in the place of whether the notice was given. How death was determined is not described in this article. Who will bring the action is not built here either.
The addressee and the hour of the notice record
The notice record carries to whom in the family it was said, the date and the hour. If there is no record, it is left as there being none. A claim that it was said orally is not counted as a line existing while there is no written line. The hour is not produced by being copied from the signature on the donation paper. If the addressee's name is faint, it is left faint. The name is not completed from the civil registry or from the companion list. If the companion list stands in the file, it is read as its own page. A name being on the list does not write that notice was given to that name. The line that writes that notice was given is looked for separately.
If it was said to more than one relative at separate hours, each line stays at its own hour. The lines are not reduced to a single notice. If only one relative's name stands, only that name is read. A relative who is not in the file is not treated as having been informed. If there is a note that writes that they were called by telephone, the hour of the note is read. If there is no note, the call does not take the place of the notice record. The content of the call is not written in this text. What is written is whether the note stands.
A line that writes that there was a conversation with the coordination centre, or with another unit, is not put in the place of the notice to the family. If the addressee of that line is an institution, the addressee is not changed to the family. A family member's name appearing in this conversation does not mean a separate notice was given to them. A separate notice line is still looked for. The hour on the death certificate is not the hour told to the family either. If the certificate stands in the file, its own hour is read. If there is no certificate, a certificate hour is not produced from the notice record. When the two hours come side by side, the difference is not closed. The difference is not turned into a number of days on this page.
To whom clinical information will be given in intensive care is in the article on information in intensive care. That article is not the short form of the death-notice record. This page does not rewrite the rule of whom the patient chose as addressee. A meeting note in which the clinical course was told is not used as the death-notice line. The death-notice line does not erase the information note of the earlier days either. The two records stand on their own date.
The determination minute
Article 13 of Law No. 2238 says that the physicians who determine the state of death draw up a signed minute showing the date and the hour of death. The minute also carries how the state of death was determined. This article does not open the steps of that determination. A step, a criterion or an order of examination is not described. What is read is whether the minute carries a date, an hour and a signature. The number of signatures is read as whatever it is on the paper. A signature that appears missing is not completed from another physician's stamp. A name that does not stand on the minute is not pasted from the board list. If the board list is on a separate page, the list stays in its own place. The name on the list does not take the place of the signature on the minute.
If the minute and the notice to the family are squeezed onto the same page, the lines are still read apart. The hour of death on the minute is not accepted as the same as the hour told to the family. If the two hours are different, the difference is not closed. If the notice line is not on the minute at all, the minute does not prove the existence of the notice. If the notice line exists and the minute does not, the notice does not take the place of the determination minute either.
The keeping sentence is not the notice
The minute and its annexes are kept for ten years at the health institution where the organ or tissue was taken. Ten years is not put in the place of a period for an action. It is not a criminal year either. If an organ was not taken, this keeping sentence does not of itself prove the existence of the notice given to the family. The notice record is looked for separately. Keeping says the paper will stand at the institution. It does not say the paper was read to the family. If a copy was given to the family, the line that writes that it was given is read. If there is no line, it is not assumed that a copy was given.
The system record in Article 8 of the Organ Transplant Services Regulation, and notice to the regional coordination centre, are not a copy of the hour spoken with the family. If the hour that went to the centre differs from the hour on the family record, the difference stands. The determination criteria in the same article are not opened in this article. If there is a code or a record number on the system printout, the number is read. The number does not write the addressee of the notice to the family. If the printout is not in the file, it is not treated as if the printout existed.
The donation paper is separate
Article 14 of Law No. 2238 ties taking an organ or tissue from the deceased to a previous declaration. If there is no declaration, consent is taken, in the order written in the article, from the relatives who are present at the moment of death. The order is not written again as a list on this page. Which relative's name and which signature stand on the paper is read. If there is no name, a name is not produced from an assumption of order. This consent is not the record that death was notified to the family. If the donation paper does not stand, the notice is not counted as absent either. If the notice does not stand, the donation paper does not take its place.
If the previous declaration and the consent taken later are separate papers, both are read. One does not erase the other. If the declaration carries the patient's own signature, that signature is not the hour of the notice to the family. The date of the family's consent is not copied from the date of the declaration. If there is a line that writes a refusal, the line is read. The refusal is not counted as donation not having been asked for. The line that writes that it was asked for does not erase the refusal either. The two lines stay in their own place.
A general informed-consent form is not a copy of this consent. The general frame of consent is in the article on informed consent. A paper signed on entry to intensive care is not read as consent to organ donation. If the heading of the donation paper does not have the name of this matter, the heading is not widened.
A claim of pressure is between the two papers
Donation having been asked for does not by itself write the hour of the notice. The notice having been given does not by itself write that the donation was asked for freely either. A claim of pressure is read with whether the two papers stand apart and with what is written on the donation line. What will be said to the family is not described in this text. The place that stays undescribed is not filled as if a minute existed. The claim does not erase the hour of the notice. The hour of the notice does not of itself announce the claim as unjust either. This page does not place a judgment on the existence or the absence of pressure. What it places is which line stands on which paper.
If a witness's name stands on the donation paper, that name is read. If the witness line is blank, it is left blank. A blank line is not completed as proof of pressure or as the absence of pressure. If it is written that an interpreter was used, the name that is written is read. If it is not written, an interpreter minute is not invented. If the notice record also has a column for a witness or a person present, that column is read on its own paper. The witness on the donation paper is not treated as having filled the notice column. If the names in the two columns are different, the difference stands. Even if the names are the same, the two papers do not merge. One of the papers that do not merge does not carry the other's hour.
Standing is read from another document
Who will continue the claim after death is in the article on who brings the action when the patient dies. Inheritance and loss of support are not built on this page. The notice minute is not the document of standing to sue. The standing paper does not write the hour of the notice either. A relative who consented to donation is not treated as having become authorised to bring the action by this consent. A relative who did not consent is not treated as having fallen from the right to claim only because of this refusal either. The two questions are in separate files.
The general frame of a medical practice error is in the article on medical malpractice. That frame does not put the hour of the notice and the donation paper in each other's place. The notice being incomplete is not by itself an announcement of fault. The notice being in writing does not close the result of a later claim either. This text builds no promise of an outcome.
Conclusion
What is read is whether the hour of the notice to the family, the determination minute and the donation paper stand apart. The steps of determination and standing to sue are not here. The keeping period does not take the place of the notice. The framework is on the health law page. The basis is on Articles 13 and 14 of Law No. 2238. The notice and the donation papers can also be separated through contact.
