The Uniform Determination of Death Act is Not Changing. Will Physicians Continue to Misdiagnose Brain Death?

AbstractEfforts to revise the Uniform Determination of Death Act in order to align law with medical practice have failed. Medical practice must now align with the law. People who are not dead under the law that defines death should not be declared dead. There is no compelling reason to continue the practice of declaring legally living persons to be dead.
