3D EEG and Clinical Evidence of Brain Dying. Preliminary Report

Determination of brain dying means reversible or irreversible injury to the brain, including brainstem. Current guidelines rely on clinical examination proof coma, absent stem reflexes, and apnoea test. Neurophysiological testing using electroencephalography evoked potentials — somatosensory brainstem auditory potential could have been helpful in final diagnostic death conclusion, but accuracy these methods last years has revealed controversies. Here, we present data quantitative EEG signal evaluation (qEEG) by a 3-dimensional mapping (3D BM) as developing tool clarify whether transverse anterior posterior coherences such connectivity indices may demonstrate connection transversal dimensions with «wavelet transformation» if 3D BM visualization representative signals improve informative value quantification when evaluating dying. The purpose our work is provide an update evidence controversies use for determining raise discussion applications transplantation program. Results. We analyzed records 10 patients admitted cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) during September, 2017 August, 2018. Data from one patient, ŽM, 33 old, after haemorrhagic shock (August 2018) were details. Quantitative dynamics images course monitored prior amantadine sulfate intravenous administration revival. demonstrated ability survive; cause was heart failure. Conclusion. confirm hope survival coma capability keep functionally optimal state good social adaptation.
