| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The number of organ transplantation is increasing under the revised organ transplantation law, but the number is very small comparing with that of USA or the countries of Europe.Cases not to be able to evaluate the brainstem reflex, such as cases with the injury of the eye, or cervical cord, cannot make diagnosis according the Criteria of Japan establish at 1985.
We enrolled the patients admitted to our department with no response, or Ⅰwave alone, or Ⅰ and Ⅱ wave alone of the auditory brainstem response (ARB) and the evaluated the significance of ABR as the ancillary test for the diagnosis of brain death. Our results suggested ABR has the usefulness and potentiality as the ancillary test for the diagnosis of brain death and suggested the risk of false-positive using ABR alone for the diagnosis of brain death.
