Collection: Brain Stem Death
What is Brain Stem Death?
Brain stem death is a condition where the brain stem responsible for controlling vital functions like breathing, heartbeat, and consciousness ceases to function permanently. Once the brain stem stops working, a person cannot breathe independently, and all vital reflexes are lost. In medical and legal terms, brain stem death is considered irreversible and is recognized as death.
Causes of Brain Stem Death
Brain stem death can occur due to severe damage or pressure on the brain. Common causes include:
Traumatic brain injuries
Hemorrhagic or ischemic strokes
Severe brain infections such as encephalitis or meningitis
Brain tumors
Brain hemorrhages and increased intracranial pressure
These conditions can reduce blood flow or cause swelling that damages the brain stem beyond recovery.
Diagnosis of Brain Stem Death
Diagnosis involves a strict protocol and is only made by trained medical professionals. Tests include:
Absence of pupil response to light
No movement of the eyes when the head is moved (oculocephalic reflex)
No response to pain stimuli
Lack of gag or cough reflex
No attempt to breathe independently when removed from the ventilator
These assessments are performed repeatedly and thoroughly to ensure accuracy.
