UM-Bot Posted October 22, 2013 #1 Share Posted October 22, 2013 (IP: Staff) · The exact point at which a person is dead and beyond resuscitation is becoming increasingly blurred. As scientists learn more about the point at which the body dies, the less it seems we actually know about the process. Previously it had been accepted that irreversible brain damage can occur only a few minutes after someone's heart stops, but now it seems that it may be possible to revive someone even up to an hour after being declared clinically dead.

Sundew Posted October 22, 2013 #3 Share Posted October 22, 2013 They may be able to temporarily stop the dying process, but until they can reverse the aging process, don't wake me, lol! 3 Top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

highdesert50 Posted October 22, 2013 #5 Share Posted October 22, 2013 The use of hypothermia in cardiac incidents is integral to currently used resuscitation algorithms. The method does make a statistical difference in recovery. It will interesting to see results when this fully transfers to the field for widespread EMS application.

Apollon Posted October 22, 2013 #6 Share Posted October 22, 2013 A little more investing in Stem cell research to stop aging, and we can call it a ball game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pallidin Posted October 23, 2013 #11 Share Posted October 23, 2013 epic, but seemingly acceptable near death experience equiped with fudgecicles Yeah, and I'm not totally certain about this, but I heard that some NFL medic teams have special ice packs to put around a perceived severe neck injury for a similar purpose... slowing down the injury progression prior to getting in a hospital. Don't know if it's in widespread use. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheGreatBeliever Posted October 23, 2013 #12 Share Posted October 23, 2013 Wow think thats a great feat for medical science. But can they cure the person from the disease that caused him/her to die? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But can they cure the person from the disease that caused him/her to die? i think this method most likely apllies to impact or coma based injuries id imagine Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
