Summary of Spanish recommendations for the evaluation and testing of deceased organ donors with regards to SARS-CoV-2. *Donation will be considered on a case-by-case basis in cured cases of COVID-19 after a minimum of 21 d following resolution of symptoms and completion of therapy. A cured case is defined as follows: Patient with confirmed COVID-19 (or highly suspicious) who was hospitalized: 21 d after the complete resolution of symptoms AND two negative SARS-CoV-2 RT-PCR in respiratory tract samples obtained >24 h apart. Patient with confirmed COVID-19 who was isolated at home: 21 d after the complete resolution of symptoms AND 2 negative SARS-CoV-2 RT-PCR in respiratory tract samples obtained >24 h apart. Patient with probable COVID-19 (ie, with no microbiological confirmation), who was isolated at home with suggestive symptoms and/or exposure to a confirmed case of COVID-19: if symptoms continue, donation will not proceed; if contact has occurred within the previous 21 d, screening for SARS-CoV-2 will be performed; if contact has occurred beyond the previous 21 d, donation will be considered as for any other potential donor [Color figure can be viewed at wileyonlinelibrary.com]
