Can a cad patient donate their heart?

A patient diagnosed with brain death (often referred to as a "CAD patient" in the context of organ donation) can indeed be an organ donor, including their heart, if they meet specific medical criteria. The heart must be functioning well and the patient must be on a ventilator to maintain blood flow and oxygenation until the donation occurs. Organ donation is typically coordinated by transplant teams to ensure ethical practices and the best outcomes for recipients.
