Donation in controlled asystole in Spain is performed in patients awaiting circulatory arrest after withdrawal of life support due to therapeutic futility. This technique has established itself as the most important source of expansion of the donation and, currently, represents more than 40% of the total donations made in our country. Its establishment, just over a decade ago, was a great boost to donation at a time when brain death was beginning to show a downward curve.
