Transplanting a healthy organ into a person who lacks that organ can save their life and boost their quality of living. While organ transplants have improved greatly over the past two decades, with generally excellent outcomes for children and young adults, the increased proportion of older transplant patients with comorbidities poses new challenges. Transplants are essential for the treatment of patients with irreversible diseases of the liver, heart, or lungs, and renal transplantation improves patient survival compared to dialysis. There has been a consistent increase in the number of solid organ transplant programmes, but this growth falls well short of meeting worldwide needs. Giving someone a second chance at life is possible only via organ and tissue donation. Giving to charity has far-reaching benefits for society as a whole, not just for the individual or family receiving the donation. In 2021, there were 1,44,302 organ transplants worldwide; India accounted for 8% of that total with its 42,259 transplants. Therefore, decreasing the number of patients in need (the waiting list) of an organ can be accomplished by increasing public awareness of the significance of volunteer enrolling for organ donation.
