Case description

The collection of cells, tissues or organs for transplantation is allowed after the confirmation of permanent and irreversible cessation of brain activity. The diagnosis of brain-stem death does not require additional tests - apart from clinical trials - with correctly made statements and exclusions. The video material shows the correct physical examination in order to confirm or exclude the cessation of brain activity.
