Message: <blockquote data-quote="Haven" data-source="post: 143756" data-attributes="member: 5537">This is bonkers. We know what happens.[URL unfurl="true"]https://www.healthline.com/health-news/researchers-scan-brain-of-dying-patient-heres-what-they-found[/URL]"A team of scientists inadvertently recorded the brainwaves of an 87-year-old patient as he died, providing the first glimpse at what happens in the brain during the final moments of life.The man’s brainwave patterns in the 30 seconds before and after his heart stopped beating were similar to what occurs during dreaming, memory recall, and meditation."“We were surprised by the high levels of activity,” study author <a href="https://medicine.umich.edu/dept/neurosurgery/george-mashour-md-phd" target="_blank">Dr. George Mashour</a>, assistant professor of anesthesiology and neurosurgery at the University of Michigan, said in a <a href="https://www.newswise.com/articles/electrical-signatures-of-consciousness-in-the-dying-brain" target="_blank">news release</a> at the time.“In fact, at near-death, many known electrical signatures of consciousness exceeded levels found in the waking state, suggesting that the brain is capable of well-organized electrical activity during the early stage of clinical death.”The similarity between the results of the two studies suggests that there may be a common neurological response to death that occurs across species, at least among mammals."[URL unfurl="true"]https://www.michiganmedicine.org/health-lab/evidence-conscious-activity-dying-brain[/URL]"The team identified four patients who passed away due to cardiac arrest in the hospital while under EEG monitoring. All four of the patients were comatose and unresponsive. They were ultimately determined to be beyond medical help and, with their families’ permission, removed from life support.Upon removal of ventilator support, two of the patients showed an increase in heart rate along with a surge of gamma wave activity, considered the fastest brain activity and associated with consciousness.Furthermore, the activity was detected in the so-called hot zone of neural correlates of consciousness in the brain, the junction between the temporal, parietal and occipital lobes in the back of the brain. This area has been correlated with dreaming, visual hallucinations in epilepsy, and altered states of consciousness in other brain studies."</blockquote>
