Answer:

The purpose of an organ transplant is to replace any vital organ not functioning and help revive (partial transplant)/make survival possible by donor organ.

Tissue typing involves checking that the organ destined for transplant has the same tissue type as the patient that is due to receive the organ requires. Tissue typing is usually only done on kidney transplants - other organs only require matching bloodtype and size.

The cornea

Organs to be transplanted lack oxygen, nutrients and other essential materials, since they have been idle for a long time.

Osmosis and diffusion help these organs filled with these essential materials, such as water, nutrients and materials, as if they were attached in the human body.

BTW, osmosis is the flow of water from less concentration of solutes to high. Diffusion is the scattering of particles from higher cont to lower.

Permanently post-transplant. i.e forever. (for 99.9% of cases. There's always a few exceptions, e.g for identical twins).

To prevent rejection you need to take immunosupressive medication. These medications lower/suppress your immune system so it won't attack the transplanted organ.

cyclosporin, mycophenolate, tacrolimus are examples of immune suppressing medication.

It's really a personal preference to become an organ donor. You can always ask a person if they are and if they're not, persuade them other wise ... but it may come off as strange. You can also make start a campaign ad stating how many lives are saved by donors and how you should become one to help someone in need. Other than that, making people do things is frowned upon.

Stomach's are not generally transplanted, since it is possible to live without them.

Erythromycine

The first organ transplant occurred in 1954, when Ronald Lee Herrick donated one of his kidneys to his brother, Richard. The surgery was led by Dr. Joseph Murray, who later won a Nobel prize for developing the surgical technique regarding kidney transplants.

Because kidney dialysis, although effective, is not a long term solution due to the huge amount of time it requires. Dialysis is just not convenient - for a patient with very little kidney function, dialysis it takes up a vast amount of time each week, is not possible to do on holidays, and women cannot have children whist on dialysis.

Whereas a kidney transplant is far more portable than a dialysis machine, does allow the possibility of children, and does not require a vast amount of maintenance per week. Although it does require daily medication and periodic check-ups, for most people it is still the "easier" long-term solution, compared to dialysis.

Yes, because when you need a transplant your sick. You can only get a transplant if you need it.

No I just found out you can't. If you were sick and you got a new organ that wasn't used to your body, that would be double the trouble. why? Because The bacteria from you being sick would affect your new organ. also it would be doubled bad because your other body parts (Around the new organ) would think that the new organ was trying to talk over you body. so they would attack the organ. but most people take medicine for that but they have to take it for the rest of there lives.

There is no such thing as a perfect match for organ transplants as everyone has unique antigens (the proteins on cells that say who the cells came from). If the recipient's immune system detects that the donor organ is from someone else it will destroy it and make things even worse for the patient. To avoid this, recipients take immunosupressants which are drugs to decrease the effect the immune response of the recipient can have. The less close a match between the donor and receiver the more stronger the drugs that must be taken. The unfortunate side effect of taking these drugs is that the immune response is less effective at fighting diseases too, so a cold virus finds it much easier to take hold.

In 2013 there were 1,923 lung transplants performed in the U.S.

Yes, it has been achieved once for womens' reproductive organs - ovaries from a donor, also a uterus from mother to daughter. The overies were used to concieve, but were removed again after the birth (so continous immunosuppression was not necessary). Thus it's not a commonly performed intervention for infertility, however it is possible. The main issue is that transplanted ovaries will result in offspring genetically related to the donor, rather than the recipient. With this in mind, the procedure produces very few benefits when compared to IVF or using donated eggs, or a surrogate.

For men, again it is possible, but again sperm will be genetically related to the donor, not the recipient. Again, it is not a commonplace procedure, and continuous immunosuppression is necessary.

hahahahahahahahahhahahahahahahha well to be honest i have no idea because im stuck on the question my self lol :P any how if any one knows how to answer this question lol tell me plz x

Treat the patient with medications that decrease the immune system's response.

It depends whether you add the word "successfully" to your question or not. Here's a timeline: http://www.wellcomecollection.org/whats-on/events/in-or-out/transplant-timeline.aspx It includes "successful" and "unsuccessful" attempts at transplanting things.

The answer is obvious. Many of the organs transplanted are organs that people cannot live without. These organs are transplanted from people who have passed on and left it their will to transplant certain organs from their body.

In the pentecostal christian religion. Being a pentecostal means accepting who you are no matter what you like. i don't think it's accepted i any other Christian faiths, not including Catholicism which is not in the Christian faith, because your body is the temple of God.

It is very difficult to get a heart transplant. There are several factors that can influence these odds depending on the availability of a replacement heart and how severe the issue is.

They are relatively safe. (The NHS or your local health authority would not fund transplants if they were very unsafe - i.e had bad outcomes. Transplants are quite expensive, but most hospitals/health authorities consider the cost "worth it"- i.e they will fund the operation. This indicates that transplants are not 'high risk'- i.e risk does not outweigh the cost). Obviously, as with any medical procedure, there are some risks attached.
