A death that can last: this is how our brains die

Date:

The great unknown: death. How can near-death experiences be explained? Scientists have always investigated this question. A possible trigger is that the brain becomes hyperactive again at the time of death. Numerous studies have now shown this, including one conducted by neurologist Jimo Borjigin from the University of Michigan (USA).

The moment you die does not mean an abrupt end to all processes in the brain. It is a process in which the brain is reactivated and cells die unevenly. According to Borjigin’s research, it is likely that this can lead to near-death experiences.

“Consciousness, as reported in near-death experiences, can occur when electrical activity is still present in the brain after cardiac arrest,” the study script reads.

“Patient No. 1” in Borjigin’s yearlong research was a 24-year-old pregnant woman with cardiac arrhythmias who collapsed unconscious one day in 2014. While in hospital, she was shocked three times and then remained in a coma for three days before life support was withdrawn. The moment the oxygen was turned off, a burst of activity began in the woman’s dying brain.
