As medical technology advances, our understanding of when a person can be declared deceased for organ donation purposes becomes more complex. Dr. Wall discusses how medical professionals and ethicists are working to ensure that the criteria for determining death are clear and ethically sound as well as explaining the ethical implications for not utilizing techniques with proven improved outcomes for patients.
