    There was a recent study done where the authors have identified brain activity in people marked as brain dead and who had returned, and who have reported see, which have been validated, events that occurred during the time on the operating table.

    Basically the authors have found brain activity hours after the person was marked as dead.

    Their study basically argues that ER departments need to change how long they’ll work on someone as there are people who could come back but who are being left to die.
