The Human Tissue Act established the Human Tissue Authority (HTA) to regulate activities concerning the removal, storage, use and disposal of human tissue. This work offers guidance to professionals carrying out activities which lie within HTA's remit. It guides how to communicate with relatives of people whose death has required a PM examination.
The Human Tissue Act 2004 (HT Act) covers England, Wales and Northern Ireland. The HT Act established the Human Tissue Authority (HTA) to regulate activities concerning the removal, storage, use and disposal of human tissue. This code of practice gives practical guidance to professionals carrying out activities which lie within the HTA's remit. They may also be of interest to members of the public. The code of practice is an updated version of the first edition of this publication, incorporating new material and revisions that reflect the HTA's experience of regulation. The code has been made more relevant to the sectors the HTA regulate by including case studies and examples; and has been restructured in a way that makes it more user-friendly. The consent provisions in this code apply to the storage and use of a body after death. This code applies to those directly involved in performing post-mortem (PM) examinations - pathologists and anatomical pathology technologists (APTs) - as well as to others such as coroners, and their officers who are in direct contact with relatives.
The code gives guidance on how to communicate with the relatives of people whose death has required a PM examination. It also gives guidance to professionals working within premises licensed by the HTA on the regulatory standards they are expected to meet. The HTA has published seven other new editions of the codes of practice, details of which can be found below. The codes complement each other and should be read alongside other relevant advice and guidance. This code on Consent replaces the previous code of practice. It has been approved by the Secretary of State following consultation with the Welsh Assembly Government and the Northern Ireland department, and it has received Parliamentary approval.
This title includes contents such as: Consent and communication - Discussing the post-mortem with the family, Tissue or organ donation, Training and support for staff, Religion, belief and culture, and Communication; The coroner's post-mortem examination - The coroner's post-mortem examination process, Disposal following coroners' post-mortem examinations, Working in collaboration, Information to be given to relatives after a coroner's post-mortem examination, and Criminal investigations; Hospital post-mortem examination; Storage of tissue blocks and slides; Disposal of tissue; Records management; HTS standards; and, Glossary.
