AB - This study identified nurses' attitudes toward brain death organ transplantation and the degree of knowledge about hospice palliative care and confirmed the relationship between these variables. The data were collected from 238 nurses with a minimum of one year of working experience in the 3 University hospitals located in B metropolitan city. The study found that their attitude score on brain death organ transplantation was an average of 3.63±0.76 (out of 5 points). The most influential sub-factors in order include recognition of brain death as death, care of organ transplants, risk of brain death, and acceptance of organ donation. The average score of knowledge on hospice palliative care was 8.18±2.44/20 points, with statistically significant differences by terminal education and current position. Little attention has been given to hospice palliative care and brain death organ transplantation in hospice sites, despite the legal implementation of them. We proposed national-level policy support for institutional supplementation and awareness enhancement for brain death organ transplantation among nurses.
