TL;DR: The donor rate could be increased 70%-80% by overcoming the reluctance of medical practitioners to resuscitate missed potential donors and increased further by gaining permission for organ retrieval from the next of kin.

Patients' attitudes to xenotransplantation.
TL;DR: Whether xenotransplantation was acceptable to patients with renal failure who were potential or actual transplant recipients is investigated, finding that all patients were generally supportive of cadaveric organ donation, and most were prepared to accept an organ from a living donor.

Attitudes to xenotransplantation: scientific enthusiasm, assumptions and evidence.
TL;DR: Open debate about xenotransplantation must now take place, and present attitudes may change as a result of this; it remains to be seen whether xenografts will be widely accepted and used, and the extent to which the chronic shortage of organs for transplantation will thereby be alleviated.

TL;DR: If the impediments to organ donation which were identified in this study could be overcome, allowing a greater number of potential donors to become actual donors, the chronic shortage of cadaveric donor organs for transplantation could be at least partly relieved.
