Podcasts about Brain death

The concept of "brain death," introduced in 1968 to enable organ harvesting, has never been proven equivalent to actual death — it merely defines an irreversible coma Documented cases exist of "brain dead" patients who were conscious, including some who mouthed "help me" as their organs were nearly harvested Global organ shortages have fueled a black market, with an estimated 5% to 20% of transplants involving illegal procurement and added pressure to lower diagnostic standards for “brain death” Recent federal investigations found serious failures in the U.S. organ donation system: 29.3% of reviewed cases showed troubling signs, and 20.8% of patients had neurologic activity incompatible with procurement — yet transplant coordinators still pushed to proceed Safer, ethical alternatives exist — such as natural therapies like DMSO that have revived “brain dead” patients and restored organ function, removing the need for transplant

In this week's episode, Brain & Life Podcast co-host Dr. Katy Peters is once again joined by Kristin Flanary, AKA Lady Glaucomflecken, to continue their conversation from last week. Kristin has advanced training in both cognitive neuroscience and social psychology and now is active on social media, podcasts, and comedy shows with her husband, Dr. Glaucomflecken.

A recent New York Times article has sparked debate about whether the legal definition of death should be broadened to help address the shortage of donor organs. Professor Keymanthri Moodley, Emeritus Professor in the Department of Medicine at Stellenbosch University and Founding Director of the Division of Medical Ethics and Law, speaks to Lester Kiewit about the ethical, medical and legal implications of redefining death, including whether patients who have irreversibly lost higher brain functions should still be considered alive. She shares her insights on how such changes could impact organ donation, public trust, and medical practice in South Africa and beyond.

Host Diane C. McLaughlin, DNP, AGACNP-BC, CCRN, FCCM, welcomes Matthew Kirschen, MD, PhD, FAAN, FNCS, to discuss what critical care professionals need to know about determining brain death/death by neurologic criteria (BD/DNC). In October 2023, a revised consensus practice guideline for the determination of brain death in both children and adults was published in Neurology (Greer DM, et al. Neurology. 2023;101;1112-1132). The guideline integrated guidance for adults and children to provide a comprehensive, practical way to evaluate patients with catastrophic brain injuries to determine whether they meet the criteria for brain death. The Society of Critical Care Medicine (SCCM) offers several additional resources to support critical care clinicians' understanding of the updated guidelines, including an article published in the March 2024 issue of Critical Care Medicine addressing what the critical care team needs to know about the guidelines (Kirschen MP, et al. Crit Care Med. 2024;52:376-386). Dr. Kirchen was the lead author of that article and shares key points in this podcast episode. Other resources include: Pediatric and Adult Brain Death/Death by Neurologic Criteria Consensus Practice Guidelines 2024 Critical Care Congress presentation Free AAN evaluation tool that walks clinicians through the process of brain death evaluation. Special article in Neurology: Clinical Practice that provides a detailed narrative about what has changed in the 2023 guidelines compared to prior guidelines. The article also includes tables outlining comparisons, bolding new recommendations, and italicizing age-specific guidance to easily identify the differences between determining brain death in children versus adults.

Johnson is a philosopher/bioethicist/neuroethicist, a Clinical Ethics Consultant, and Associate Professor of Bioethics and Humanities at SUNY Upstate Medical University. She is a member of the Neuroethics Working Group of the NIH BRAIN Initiative, Associate Editor for Neuroethics, and the co-founder of the American Society for Bioethics + Humanities Animal Bioethics Affinity Group. Her research focuses on ethical issues related to brain injuries, including sport-related neurotrauma, brain death, and disorders of consciousness. She is the author of Philosophical, Medical, and Legal Controversies About Brain Death.   In this episode, we focus on Philosophical, Medical, and Legal Controversies About Brain Death. We tackle the concept of “death” from a medical and legal perspective, and how it is commonly understood. We explore how the concept of “brain death” evolved over time, the different types of brain death, brain-body dualism in medicine, and the metaphysical and moral commitments behind brain death. We go through epistemic, medical, and ethical challenges to brain death. We discuss what happens when there is conflict in worldviews between patients and doctors, and the value of patient autonomy. Finally, we talk about reasonable objections to the medical view of death. -- A HUGE THANK YOU TO MY PATRONS/SUPPORTERS: PER HELGE LARSEN, JERRY MULLER, BERNARDO SEIXAS, ADAM KESSEL, MATTHEW WHITINGBIRD, ARNAUD WOLFF, TIM HOLLOSY, HENRIK AHLENIUS, FILIP FORS CONNOLLY, ROBERT WINDHAGER, RUI INACIO, ZOOP, MARCO NEVES, COLIN HOLBROOK, PHIL KAVANAGH, SAMUEL ANDREEFF, FRANCIS FORDE, TIAGO NUNES, FERGAL CUSSEN, HAL HERZOG, NUNO MACHADO, JONATHAN LEIBRANT, JOÃO LINHARES, STANTON T, SAMUEL CORREA, ERIK HAINES, MARK SMITH, JOÃO EIRA, TOM HUMMEL, SARDUS FRANCE, DAVID SLOAN WILSON, YACILA DEZA-ARAUJO, ROMAIN ROCH, DIEGO LONDOÑO CORREA, YANICK PUNTER, CHARLOTTE BLEASE, NICOLE BARBARO, ADAM HUNT, PAWEL OSTASZEWSKI, NELLEKE BAK, GUY MADISON, GARY G HELLMANN, SAIMA AFZAL, ADRIAN JAEGGI, PAULO TOLENTINO, JOÃO BARBOSA, JULIAN PRICE, EDWARD HALL, HEDIN BRØNNER, DOUGLAS FRY, FRANCA BORTOLOTTI, GABRIEL PONS CORTÈS, URSULA LITZCKE, SCOTT, ZACHARY FISH, TIM DUFFY, SUNNY SMITH, JON WISMAN, WILLIAM BUCKNER, PAUL-GEORGE ARNAUD, LUKE GLOWACKI, GEORGIOS THEOPHANOUS, CHRIS WILLIAMSON, PETER WOLOSZYN, DAVID WILLIAMS, DIOGO COSTA, ALEX CHAU, AMAURI MARTÍNEZ, CORALIE CHEVALLIER, BANGALORE ATHEISTS, LARRY D.

Organ donation is always a universal good... right? This conversation is the type that has the potential to completely challenge previously held beliefs. Are brain-dead patients TRULY brain dead? Are the organs being harvested from someone who REALLY has no life left in them? Heidi Klessig, MD, tells us her own story and how she came to have her own beliefs challenged, and explains why she is now dedicated to the informed consent of all registered organ donors, those considering donating their organs, their families, and the recipients of transplanted organs. The question we all really need to ask is... When is somebody truly dead?

Dr. Adam Schiavi is an assistant professor of anesthesiology and critical care medicine and neurology at the Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine. His areas of clinical expertise include anesthesiology, neurological critical care, disorders of consciousness and brain death diagnosis, clinical ethics, critical care medicine, and traumatic brain injury. In this episode, Therese Markow and Dr. Adam Schiavi discuss how the definition of death has changed throughout history, what the current definition is, and how that is determined by the medical technology of the time. Brain death is the current definition of death, medically, but what happens to a body after brain death is determined can vary depending on the state you live in. This can be a trying time for families and for the providers involved with the now-deceased patient as the definition of death is not understood by everyone. They also discuss how brain death differs from other states of consciousness and how people often confuse the terminology of those different states, as well as the ability to hope for healing from all but brain death.  Key Takeaways: The total cessation of all functions of the brain is the current definition of brain death in the United States. This definition is based on a clinical exam testing all parts of the brain, typically done by somebody certified in doing brain death determinations. You have to have a reason for the neurologic exam to be declining. Without a reason, you can't call somebody brain dead. You can replace every organ in the body, but you cannot replace the brain and when the brain dies, the body dies all the time 100% unless those organ systems are artificially supportive.  "Our culture changes with technology and the way we define death is a part of culture. As that culture has shifted, the way we define death has also shifted with our new technologies of how we can actually determine whether people are dead." —  Dr. Adam Schiavi Connect with Dr. Adam Schiavi: Johns Hopkins Bio: Adam Schiavi, MD, PhD, MS    Email: aschiav1@jhmi.edu Connect with Therese: Website: www.criticallyspeaking.net Threads: @critically_speaking Email: theresemarkow@criticallyspeaking.net Audio production by Turnkey Podcast Productions.

We've talked about Brain Death before with Robert (Bob) Troug and guest-host Liz Dzeng, and in many ways today's podcast is a follow up to that episode (apologies Bob for mispronouncing your last name on today's podcast!). Why does this issue keep coming up?  Why is it unresolved?  Today we put these questions to Winston Chiong, a neurologist and bioethicist, and Sean Aas, a philosopher and bioethicist.  We talk about many reasons and ways forward on this podcast, including: The ways in which advancing technology continually forces us to re-evaluate what it means to be dead - from the ability of cells/organs to revive, to a future in which organs can be grown, to uploading our consciousness to an AI.  (I briefly mention the Bobiverse series by Denise Taylor - a science fiction series about an uploaded consciousness that confronts the reader with a  re-evaluation of what it means to be human, or deserving of moral standing). The moral questions at stake vs the biologic questions (and links between them) The pressures the organ donation placers on this issue, and questioning if this is the dominant consideration (as Winston notes, organ donation was not central to the Jahi McMath story) What we argue about when we argue about death - the title of a great recent paper from Sean - which argues that “we must define death in moralized terms, as the loss of a significant sort of moral standing,” - noting that those why are “dead” have something to gain - the ability to donate their organs to others. Winston's paper on the “fuzziness” around all definitions of brain death, titled, Brain Death without Definitions. As we joke about at the start - talking with philosophers and bioethicists, you almost always get a response along the lines of, “well that's a good question, but let's examine a deeper more fundamental question.”  Today is no different. And the process of identifying the right questions to ask is absolutely the best place to start.   Eventually, of course, everything must cease.   -@AlexSmithMD

In the area of Jewish medical ethics brain death is the topic which just will not die. With the advent of technologies and medical developments since the mid-twentieth century, questions about the halakhic definition of death have gone from the largely theoretical (and philosophical) to painfully practical for physicians, patients, and their families. Perhaps no other rabbinic figure's opinion has factored in quite so significantly on the subject as R. Moshe Feinstein zt”l, the preeminent posek of the last century. However, the contours and applications of R. Feinstein's position have been intensely debated. In a recent piece of research that surfaces some relevant new points of evidence, Dr. Noam Stadlan offers a re-understanding of R. Feinstein's ruling, arguing that he defined death as irreversible apneic coma, without regard for the continued presence of heart function. This has various significant implications for end-of-life care and organ donation. In this episode of the Tradition Podcast, Stadlan joins our editor, Jeffrey Saks, to discuss the article, as well as larger trends in the field of Jewish medical ethics, the partnership that should exist between physicians and medical research on one hand with poskim on the other, and why our readers are perennially interested in the field of medical halakha. Read Noam Stadlan, “Revisiting R. Moshe Feinstein's Definition of Death” (TRADITION, Winter 2024): https://traditiononline.org/revisiting-r-moshe-feinsteins-definition-of-death Noam Stadlan, M.D., is Vice-Chairman of the Department of Neurosurgery at NorthShore University HealthSystem, Evanston, IL.

LifeSiteNews' John-Henry Westen sits down with Dr. Paul Byrne, a neonatologist and an outspoken critic of the concept of ‘brain death' and its exploitation by Big Pharma.Dr. Byrne explains the troubling concept of ‘brain death,' which he says is medically and philosophically flawed. He argues that it was created to facilitate organ transplantation from otherwise living human beings – in other words, organ harvesting. This is a crime against the natural moral law.In fact, Death is understood to have set in when the body starts to decompose. This definitely isn't so for a person who is only ‘brain-dead,' and can still have very many signs of life. Further, in Dr. Byrne's own experience, even those who have been declared ‘brain-dead' have later shown signs of ‘brain-life.'Organ donation sounds like a great gift for the world at first, but the implications are much more concerning. Dr. Byrne discusses these implications with John-Henry, whilst also touching on the legal aspects of ‘brain death' and the influence of ‘Big Pharma.'Dr. Byrne sets out powerful ways in which you can protect yourself and your loved ones, including getting educated on the importance of informed consent and legal protections, and the various points at which you need to opt out of organ donation – that is, if you want to avoid organs being harvested whilst you or your loved ones are still alive.Download the all-new LSNTV App now, available on iPhone and Android!LSNTV Apple Store: https://apps.apple.com/us/app/lsntv/id6469105564 LSNTV Google Play: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.lifesitenews.app ****SHOP ALL YOUR FUN AND FAVORITE LIFESITE MERCH! https://shop.lifesitenews.com/ +++Connect with John-Henry Westen and all of LifeSiteNews on social media:LifeSite: https://linktr.ee/lifesitenews John-Henry Westen: https://linktr.ee/jhwesten Hosted on Acast.

The purpose of informed consent, as it exists now, is primarily to maintain patient autonomy, but additional benefits include the protection of patients, avoidance of fraud, and promotion of rational decisions, amongst others. It is now considered both an ethical and legal obligation which should, at a minimum, always include: 1) the nature of the procedure, 2) the risks and benefits of the procedure, 3) reasonable alternatives, and 4) risks and benefits of alternatives, with an assessment of comprehension of these elements (1). This week Dr Lauren Koffman is joined by Clotilde Balucani, MD and Julia Durrant, MD two of the authors of the recent Currents article Consent for Brain Death Determination - the ends justify the means... or it does not.

When does life truly end? It's a question that echoes through the halls of medical institutions and tugs at the heartstrings of families facing loss. Dr. Doyen Nguyen, a pathologist with a rich background in bioethics, joins us to unravel the complexities of brain death—a concept that has reshaped our understanding of mortality and sparked an ongoing debate in both medical and ethical spheres. Her penetrating insights challenge the status quo and provide a fresh perspective on what it means to be truly alive or dead.As we navigate the turbulent waters of medical definitions and ethical dilemmas, Dr. Nguyen steers us through the history and evolution of death's criteria, starting from the time-honored signs of heart and respiratory cessation to the contemporary, yet contentious, concept of brain death. This journey is not just clinical; it's laden with the emotional gravity of real-life stories, such as the heart-wrenching narrative of a mother's regret after her son's organs were donated following a brain death diagnosis. These stories underscore the profound impact of medical categorizations on individuals and their loved ones, emphasizing the necessity for clear communication and informed consent in the process of organ donation.Stepping beyond the confines of conventional healthcare, our conversation with Dr. Nguyen illuminates the intersections where medicine meets faith, ethics, and the essence of human existence. Our exploration extends an invitation to listeners to engage with these critical questions and to join us on a path that transcends the physical, touching the spiritual and emotional dimensions of well-being.
