jewish medical ethics takes a unique approach. it encourages live organ donation, such as kidney transplant, partial liver lobe (adult/child) transplant and the like, when two basic conditions are met, firstly, that the operation does not (significantly) endanger the life of the donor, and secondly, that the recipient's life will be saved through this donation. however, opinions are divided on the issue of organ donations which will permanently end the donor's heart beating, in a case when the donor is brain dead. according to one school of thought, the definition of death is indicated by irreversible cessation of heart beat. hence, this view does not allow vital organs to be removed from a brain dead patient, as stopping the heart from beating is, in their view, tantamount to killing. conversely, the other school of thought (which include many orthodox rabbis and israel's chief rabbinate) the determination of death is based on brain function irrespective of a beating heart. therefore, according to their view, removing vitals organs from a brain dead patient for the sake of saving a life, is in fact permissible, and even encouraged.
