Abstract :
-The need for organ donation has increased during the last two decades,1 while the rate of consenting to organ donation has remained insufficient worldwide.2 Research has indicated that the most important reason for restricted accomplishment in organ donation is lack of consent of the deceased’s relatives.1,3 In most countries, the process of organ donation depends on the decision of the deceased’s relatives on organ donation and this decision is strongly influenced by numerous factors.4 Some Iranian individuals do not have a positive attitude towards organ donation.
