Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In Japan, brain death is recognized as death of a person only when it is assumed to provide organs, and a very strict brain death determination is carried out. On the other hand, there is a brain death (general brain death) determination that is performed as a medical evaluation of brain function without assuming the provision of organs. In this study, we investigated the current situation of general brain death determination and family correspondence, in many institutions, it was judged that the patient was brain dead without conducting an apnea test. On the other hand, the family explained that "the patient is brain dead", it is strictly considered inconsistent. I would like to raise a problem in the way of diagnosis of brain death which defines the end of life.
