Anesthesia literature about donor management is scarce and predominantly composed of reviews of practice, with little exploration of the scientific foundations. The aim of this review is to guide the anesthetist in the organ-protective perioperative therapy. The pathophysiological changes in patients who progress to brain death are briefly summarized.

National and international recommendations on treatment goals and drug therapy differ considerably in some aspects. The therapy concepts applied are very heterogeneous. Apart from medical challenges, the ethical circumstances are an additional burden for the entire treatment team. Whether anesthesia is reasonable during organ retrieval remains unclear.
