In that report, Defining Death: Medical, Legal and Ethical Issues in the Determination of Death, the President‘s Commission forwarded a uni- form determination of death act, which laid heavy accent on the signifi- cance of the brain stem in determining whether an individual is alive or dead: An individual who has sustained either (1) irreversible cessation of circulatory and respiratory functions, or (2) irreversible cessation of all functions of the entire brain, including the brain stem, is dead. A determination of death must be made in accordance with accepted medical standards ([1], p. 2). The plausibility of these criteria is undermined as soon as one confronts the question of the level of treatment that ought to be provided to human bodies that have permanently lost consciousness but whose brain stems are still functioning. | | 出版日期 | Book 19881st edition | | 關(guān)鍵詞 | death; ethical issues; health; issue; metaphysics; physics | | 版次 | 1 | | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-94-009-2707-0 | | isbn_softcover | 978-94-010-7720-0 | | isbn_ebook | 978-94-009-2707-0 | | copyright | Kluwer Academic Publishers 1988 |
