Death determined by neurologic criteria, commonly referred to as "brain death," occurs when function of the entire brain ceases, including the brain stem. Diagnostic criteria for brain death are explicit but controversy exists regarding nuances of the evaluation and potential confounders of the examination.

The development and evolution of the concept of brain death has been necessary due to our technologic advances in medical care and organ transplantation. The current operational definition of brain death is based on coma, absent brain stem reflexes, and apnea, with use of confirmatory testing only as necessary.

Death is a natural process, but the definition of death varies depending on the cultural and religious background, all over the world. The historical development of the concept and the current criteria in the determination of brain death must be well understood.

The diagnosis of brain death should be based on a simple premise. If every possible confounder has been excluded and all possible treatments have been tried or considered, irreversible loss of brain function is clinically recognized as the absence of brainstem reflexes, verified apnea, loss of vascular tone, invariant heart rate, and, eventually ...
