Brain stem death does not mean CEASING OF ALL NEUROLOGICAL
FUNCTION as YOU WOULD LIKE TO BELIEVE . The clinical tests are
directed on the brain stem only
Like it or not the whole medical committee has treated brain
stem death as brain dead. Tis is already a rigourously tested fact
tat brain stem death means there is no hope for u. I mean u cannot
ever breath on your own, u cannot ever control your heartbeat, u
cannot ever move any part of your body and u cannot ever use any of
your sense, u can never ever use any of your organs, u can never
ever communicate then why do u think the person is living ? If u
use back the old definition of dead, tis person will die if life
support is not given. Tis is not stated by singapore, it is by the
world of doctors.
Oddly enough, MOH did not include neuroimaging in its guidelines
as according to your article that it should. MOH stated that 6 out
of 6 can have 2 of the 5 tests listed in table 5 in your other
article but vaguely explained about it being non-compulsory for
them to use it as a final declaration of death. That means that
even if you are negative for ancillary testing - aka you have blood
flow in the brain - you still can be declared LEGALLY DEAD. That is
how vague MOH's stance is on that aspect. It's inconsistent - end
of story
The article suggested it is not mandatory. And they never say
tat u have to follow all the 6 other tests. U need to read the MOH
website properly. The clinical test is very important. If u can do
all 7, end of story. If u can do 6, u must pass all 6 clinical test
before proceeding to the other aucillary tests. And all these
aucillary tests show u r dead before u r pronounce as brain dead.
It other words, if any of the test give a result
tat he is not brain dead, he is not brain dead. All the test taken
must confirm brain dead before claiming he is brain dead. U have to
read properly
You just provide me with more physiological stand points which I
find questionable - brain stem death is not total cessation of
brain functions but it is a precursor to cessation of brain
functions. To date , there is no research on how long a person can
keep their consciousness with a brain stem death while awaiting the
final celestial journey.
Again u r coming out with points tat r groundless fact and
affect the people who can live and think and interact. U say tat
the person can keep consciousness, now who told u tat ? If the
brain is damage tat badly tat he cannot control his basic body
movement, why do u think he can still have coherent thoughts ? The
remanining brain function may simply be like static on the TV and
not a picture. Instead of giving those organs who is shown to be
thinking and interacting, u propose the people to waste them
because they r thinking static.
I am not denying that you cannot survive with brain stem death
artificially. am arguing that higher neurological functions could
be there, a higher state of consciousness could be present until
the body is allowed to die neurological and cardiovascularly before
it is touched for organ transplant
Do not be surprised , your organ donating supporters in the
medical line are now proposing to take organs from those who have
not suffered brain stem death .
So the lines are changing again to suit fanatical organ farmers,
especially ones from Harvard, who propose to redefine death and
KILL living bodies in the name of good.
Please state where u get these info from. U make a lot of
accusations but they r, well, just accusations and should not be
taken seriously.
