Arbeitstagung Neurointensivmedizin 41. Jahrestagung der DGNI und DSG

New US Guidelines in the international context

The time is right to look for common grounds in the world-encompassing topic of brain death, given the pressing needs of organ donation and the differences and uncertainties that are at least felt to be associated with that diagnosis. Brain death has to become and to be accepted as the most reliable diagnosis in neurocritical care -in medicine, actually- everywhere. Delegates from the NCS, the DGNI, and IPAACS who have played pivotal roles as experts in their development will present national guidelines and explore common ground regarding brain death.
