Organ transplants are the easiest to explain - people need these when their own organs have failed to prevent them from dying.
Tissue transplants work on the sample principle, but the patient may simply be suffering or could use the extra boost to return to full health. Tissue transplants include corneas (which can restore sight to people legally blinded by glaucoma or corneal trauma), bone grafts (which are often used during complicated bone re-setting surgeries) and skin grafts (which can be used during reconstructive surgery or to treat burn patients).

It is when a major organ is removed from the body and a replacement fitted or transplanted. Such as a heart transplant.
In cases where two people need the same organ transplant simultaneously, the decision typically depends on the established medical criteria and prioritization protocols. Factors such as the severity of the patients' conditions, compatibility with the donor organ, waiting time on the transplant list, and overall health status are considered. Medical professionals and transplant teams assess these elements to determine who is in greater need and who is more likely to benefit from the transplant. Ultimately, the goal is to ensure the best possible outcome for the recipient.
Around 100,000 people in the United States are currently on the waiting list for an organ transplant. However, the number of people needing a transplant worldwide may vary depending on the region and availability of organ donors.
To find out if you are on the waiting list for an organ transplant, talk to the transplant coordinator at the hospital that your are registered with. If you wish to find out if you are a registered organ donor (in the UK), look at www.organdonation.nhs.uk/
