Re-evaluating Brain Death: The Potential for Treatment and Recovery after Brain Injury (P4.285)
Conclusions: Treatment-induced reversal of BD was evidenced by functional recovery across several domains. ACP neuromodulation optimizes cerebral functioning: electrical stimulation increases metabolic coupling; nutraceuticals promote healing, repair and neurotransmitter production while attenuating inflammatory cascades and free-radical damage. BD may not be definitively irreversible and deserves therapeutic consideration.Disclosure: Dr. Defina has nothing to disclose. Dr. Zakrzewski has nothing to disclose.
