Abstract

Human organ transplantation is an important symbol of medical development to improve the survival rate of some patients. However, the supply and demand of human organ transplantation is not balanced in China. This paper focuses on exploring the legislation on human organ transplantation to adapt to the current situation of organ transplantation in China. The paper discusses about the nature of human organ transplantation, the decisive object of human organ transplantation, the decisive subject of human organ transplantation, and refers to the systems of other countries and regions to seek the legal improvement of the decision-making power of human organ transplantation in China. The paper shows that legislators should relax the scope of organ transplantation within the legal framework, such as expanding civil capacity limitation, so as to improve the relevant legislation on human organ transplantation and promote the rapid development of human organ transplantation.
