摘要:
This paper presents a simple method of maintaining good donor organ oxygenation during a prolonged test of apnea used to determine brain death prior to cadaver transplantation. Apneic diffusion oxygenation can maintain arterial pO2above 200 torr for periods exceeding 15 minutes, thereby allowing a more definitive determination of brain death without concomitant tissue hypoxia and possible damage to donor organs.
