felixomor:The diagnosis of brain death is an irreversible loss of brain function, so if it's not irreversible then it's not brain death. Haba, una dense ooo |
butterflylion:Hey god. Which part of brain death is irreversible and anyone diagnosed as brain dead but regains cerebral function was misdiagnosed don't you theists understand? And yes people beat prognostic odds all the time. Spontaneous remission of cancer is beating prognostic odds. Gosh. |
butterflylion:This ignorant guy let me just clear this up before people come here and swallow your falsehood. Brain death is irreversible. Anyone that was previously diagnosed as brain dead and later regained cerebral function was misdiagnosed (the previous diagnosis was wrong) the people in your blog were misdiagnosed as brain dead. I just used it to show that flatline on EEG doesn't necessarily mean brain death. Of course I don't expect you to understand it, you're too dumb to. And no, no doctor diagnosed Dr Eben brain dead because he was fuckkking sedated. How thick can you all be. I've been repeating same thing since. |
felixomor:I was asking for the tests done to indicate that he was brain dead since you and your genius colleague said he was brain dead, that was why I was looking for apnoea test. Saying someone is brain dead without apnoea test is criminal. I was looking for who certified because it was maddening that someone sedated could be declared brain dead. I wanted to be sure that was why I was looking for it. You guys don't even know what and what goes into certifying someone brain dead. You all have been harping on EEG which isn't even listed as a major criteria. But it flew over the head of you geniuses. Patients have been shown to recover cerebral function after recording flatlines on EEG even your Co dumb genius posted a blog that showed that. People beat prognostic odds all the time. And you still haven't posted this fake mdcn rule that you made up yourself. And you still haven't offered any rebuttal to any of my points. |
felixomor:Ogbeni if there's a presence of a confounding agent, it won't get to apnoea test. Your nigga was sedated that was why he never got the apnoea test because it's against guidelines to certify someone sedated brain dead yet you geniuses still insist that he was brain dead. Felix answer my questions naa, I go call the whole of Nairaland for you ooo. Your rebuttal to my post on brain death and sedation. Your rebuttal to my post on misdiagnosis of brain death. Your rebuttal to these. 1) Doctors in America certify a patient brain dead despite butterflylion claim to the contrary. 2) Dr. Eben wasn't certified brain dead by his doctors. 3) Brain death is an irreversible process, there's no way Dr. Eben would have been brain dead and regained full neurological function. 4) Felixomor is yet to show me my foolish EEG facts. 5) People experiencing NDE can't perceive time which explains why Dr. Eben thinks he was in an NDE for 7 days. 6) The best explanation for Dr. Eben case was that he experienced his NDE as he was regaining cortical function as explained by a neurologist Professor Oliver Wolf Sacks in this link.https://www.theatlantic.com/health/archive/2012/12/seeing-god-in-the-third-millennium/266134/ 7)EEG aren't really needed to certify a patient brain dead 8.) Still waiting for something tangible. 9) Butterflylion and Felixomor have no clue on how Nigerian housemanship works. |
felixomor:If I see no identifiable tracings, I'll want to evaluate for brain death obviously and that means eliminating confounding agents of which sedation is one of them and your nigga was sedated, yet you geniuses still insist he was brain dead. I never said sedation can lead to absent brain activity, please point where I wrote that. Still yapping about the non-existent mdcn rules. Sarcasm always flies over the head of theists, so it's okay if you didn't understand it. Y'all ain't bright enough. I've answered your questions. Please answer mine. Your rebuttal to my post on brain death and sedation. Your rebuttal to my post on misdiagnosis of brain death. Your rebuttal to these. 1) Doctors in America certify a patient brain dead despite butterflylion claim to the contrary. 2) Dr. Eben wasn't certified brain dead by his doctors. 3) Brain death is an irreversible process, there's no way Dr. Eben would have been brain dead and regained full neurological function. 4) Felixomor is yet to show me my foolish EEG facts. 5) People experiencing NDE can't perceive time which explains why Dr. Eben thinks he was in an NDE for 7 days. 6) The best explanation for Dr. Eben case was that he experienced his NDE as he was regaining cortical function as explained by a neurologist Professor Oliver Wolf Sacks in this link.https://www.theatlantic.com/health/archive/2012/12/seeing-god-in-the-third-millennium/266134/ 7)EEG aren't really needed to certify a patient brain dead 8.) Still waiting for something tangible. 9) Butterflylion and Felixomor have no clue on how Nigerian housemanship works. I'm patiently waiting. |
felixomor:Ogbeni you didn't even offer any rebuttal to what I wrote. At least you're a doctor, that's why I'm asking you. Butterflylion own is an illiterate in this field, he has nothing to contribute. that's why I'm facing you. What's your rebuttal to my post about sedation and brain death? What's your rebuttal to my post about misdiagnosis of brain death? What's your rebuttal to these? 1) Doctors in America certify a patient brain dead despite butterflylion claim to the contrary. 2) Dr. Eben wasn't certified brain dead by his doctors. 3) Brain death is an irreversible process, there's no way Dr. Eben would have been brain dead and regained full neurological function. 4) Felixomor is yet to show me my foolish EEG facts. 5) People experiencing NDE can't perceive time which explains why Dr. Eben thinks he was in an NDE for 7 days. 6) The best explanation for Dr. Eben case was that he experienced his NDE as he was regaining cortical function as explained by a neurologist Professor Oliver Wolf Sacks in this link.https://www.theatlantic.com/health/archive/2012/12/seeing-god-in-the-third-millennium/266134/ 7)EEG aren't really needed to certify a patient brain dead 8.) Still waiting for something tangible. 9) Butterflylion and Felixomor have no clue on how Nigerian housemanship works. Ogbeni how many times do I have to tell you that I didn't school in Nigeria, so those your time frame laws if they exist doesn't apply to me? Na wa oooo |
felixomor:And as usual, he didn't attempt any of the points. I have already told you why his doctors couldn't certify him brain dead. He was heavily sedated, that is a contraindication to certifying a patient brain dead, but you geniuses still insist that the nigga is brain dead. See why I said y'all are secondary School students? By definition anyone that was diagnosed brain dead and recovers from it was misdiagnosed as brain death by definition is irreversible. House job is usually completed within one year if an extension is required the doctor informs the employing hospital, not mdcn. And I didn't say I spent more than one year during my house job. Do you want to try again? |
felixomor:Lol. Address the points, I'll list them here again So, so far, we've been able to establish that. 1) Doctors in America certify a patient brain dead despite butterflylion claim to the contrary. 2) Dr. Eben wasn't certified brain dead by his doctors. 3) Brain death is an irreversible process, there's no way Dr. Eben would have been brain dead and regained full neurological function. 4) Felixomor is yet to show me my foolish EEG facts. 5) People experiencing NDE can't perceive time which explains why Dr. Eben thinks he was in an NDE for 7 days. 6) The best explanation for Dr. Eben case was that he experienced his NDE as he was regaining cortical function as explained by a neurologist Professor Oliver Wolf Sacks in this link.https://www.theatlantic.com/health/archive/2012/12/seeing-god-in-the-third-millennium/266134/ 7)EEG aren't really needed to certify a patient brain dead 8.) Still waiting for something tangible. 9) Butterflylion and Felixomor have no clue on how Nigerian housemanship works. |
KingEbukasBlog:Exposed kwa? I've listed 9 points of contention and all Felix and butterflylion could come up with was a weak attempt at one. Just point one Wikipedia article I posted. Bloody liar I don't expect you guys to understand. It's like discussing theoretical physics with secondary School students. I had to give up cos it was ad hominems all the way. They should address my 9 points. You can help them too if you want. |
butterflylion:And sarcasm flies over the head of theists. Happens every fuckkking time. Can't recognize it even if it's fuckkking them in the arse. |
felixomor:So, there's mega stroke, mini stroke, micro stroke and nano stroke. Things I learn everyday. Thanks for the lecture. I never knew that. And you have not shown me anything about foolish EEG facts. I challenged you and you brought out nothing. Of course I know what masking effect means. You said, sepsis was a contraindication and I showed you clearly that sepsis wasn't listed as a criteria. Of course I know about the criteria to diagnose sepsis. I was only demonstrating why your argument doesn't hold water. All these rigmaroles are irrelevant. Apnoea test was not carried out. No right thinking doctor would declare someone heavily sedated brain dead. Your doctor wasn't declared brain dead. It's okay though, you win, can I go back to work now? |
felixomor:I explicitly stated it here that Cassano had an Ischemic stroke secondary to a paradoxical emboli. Did you deliberately forget that one or what? He had fuckkking heart surgery after the stroke for crying out loud, where you went to read about it didn't tell you that too? You've been calling me names since, you're yet to show me the foolish EEG facts, this is like the 20th time of asking. You can't show because they're not there. You don't even know what they are. Oh, it's now masking effect, I thought you said it was contraindication. Everything I've done here was just to demonstrate to you that your Lord and Savior Dr. Eben was never declared brain dead. |
felixomor:Sepsis wasn't listed there, so I don't see how that debunks my claim. Apnoea test wasn't performed, so he couldn't be certified brain dead. Simple. Cassano had a stroke and he came back to play football, all these ones that you're doing now is window dressing. 7 points, 1 weak attempt. |
butterflylion:According to these 2 articles, brain death is described as irreversible https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2772257/ https://www.openanesthesia.org/brain-death-definition/ I trust research articles and legal definition of terms much more than that blog cum website you put up there. Is it paining you that I'm posting articles instead of writing? Are you allergic to reading? Yea, it's a thing with some nigerians. Brain death is certified by a doctor so that if it turns out that the patient isn't actually brain dead, he can be sued for malpractice. I've shown you how it's done across different US states and you still don't want to accept. Can only take a horse to a stream, you can't force it to drink water. |
felixomor:Here is the criteria from American Academy of Neurology. A lot of things are considered, but the 3 main are The clinical evaluation (neurologic assessment).Sepsis isn't listed anywhere as a contraindication for apnoea test. The ischemic stroke example was to demonstrate how people beat prognostic odds, I never compared both cases. I dont know how that flew over your head. I'm a doctor, I'm qualified to read an EEG. Suck it up. 7 points but you could only muster one weak attempt at one. Pathetic Okay, you win. |
felixomor:Oga, the law says that to certify someone brain dead, 3 criteria must be met. Whether he was septic is irrelevant. So, as far as he didn't meet the 3 criteria, he's not brain dead. Simple. And I've said it here before that he is not the first person to beat the prognostic odds and he won't be the last. Antonio Cassano had an ischemic stroke secondary to a paradoxical emboli. He recovered fully and continued his football career. Out of 7 points you could only muster a weak attempt at one? |
So, so far, we've been able to establish that. 1) Doctors in America certify a patient brain dead despite butterflylion claim to the contrary. 2) Dr. Eben wasn't certified brain dead by his doctors. 3) Brain death is an irreversible process, there's no way Dr. Eben would have been brain dead and regained full neurological function. 4) Felixomor is yet to show me my foolish EEG facts. 5) People experiencing NDE can't perceive time which explains why Dr. Eben thinks he was in an NDE for 7 days. 6) The best explanation for Dr. Eben case was that he experienced his NDE as he was regaining cortical function as explained by a neurologist Professor Oliver Wolf Sacks in this link.https://www.theatlantic.com/health/archive/2012/12/seeing-god-in-the-third-millennium/266134/ 7)EEG aren't really needed to certify a patient brain dead 8.) Still waiting for something tangible. 9) Butterflylion and Felixomor have no clue on how Nigerian housemanship works. |
felixomor:I was talking about those that didn't study in Nigeria and America that want to practice in those countries. As far as you have MBBS only, no matter how many years post graduation, you're doing housemanship. If your provisional license expires, you get a new one. You're a doctor naa I shouldn't be explaining all these to you. You're a doctor, right? Housemanship is completed in one year, everyone knows that |
felixomor:Me on the defence? Never Butterflylion is just busy spilling falsehood. I can't standby and watch someone who calls himself a Christian lie blatantly. Since housemanship is being a problem, let me break it down. Part of the requirements required for full registration in Nigeria and America is the completion of an internship/house job program. No matter how many years post graduation, as far as you have just MBBS, you're doing that housemanship, there's no discrimination of senior or junior house officer, you're a bloody house officer. |
butterflylion:Doesn't matter how long you spent post graduation, if you're doing your housemanship in Nigeria, it's called House job. Stop embarrassing yourself, what you don't know ask. People 10years post graduation go to America and do housemanship/internship again from the beginning. I don't know where you're getting your putrid information from. |
felixomor:Apnoea test. It wasn't performed to certify him brain dead. The article didn't say so. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2824942/ |
felixomor:Nope cos no where in the article was it written that apnoeaof test was performed on him to determine if he's brain dead or not. |
felixomor:I never said the person was short, my question was was he CERTIFIED? Because in the US, a patient is certified brain dead by a doctor. And from the story, he wasn't. |
felixomor:There's no device used. The three essential findings in brain death are coma, absence of brainstem reflexes, and apnoea, that's all you need. Every other thing is ancillary tests like EEG, cerebral angiography, nuclear scan, TCD, CTA, and MRI/MRA |
felixomor:Okay, this is for certifying a patient brain dead in America. Examiner(s) — The number and the expertise of the examiners required to make a brain death varies by state and country [4,5]. Some states (eg, Virginia) specifically require the physician to be a specialist in the neurosciences, while others (Alaska, Georgia) give authority to nurses with subsequent certification by a physician. States and countries also differ as to whether more than one physician is required to certify a patient as brain dead |
felixomor:Facts? He should post where he got the quote from then I'll engage him squarely. For all I know he wrote the rubbish himself, I won't waste my time on that. |
felixomor:A lot of things come into play when certifying a patient brain dead. In the UK for example they don't entirely trust EEG readings for brain death certification. Brain death is not reversible too, so there's no way the guy was brain dead. |
butterflylion:Brain death is certified and put in writing for medicolegal reasons. I wonder how I expect non medics to understand this. The way a clinical death is certified, same way a brain death is certified, you people should stop embarrassing yourselves. |
butterflylion:Of course, ridicule and ad hominems when you have nothing to say, I've seen your type before. Just 2 simple things and he's running away. |
butterflylion:It wasn't part of my medical school that's for sure. I didn't school in Nigeria, I was already 2 years post graduation before coming back to do my house job. You don't know shittttt about me okay? |
butterflylion:Sure I'll go after you've 1) Showed me where his doctors declared him brain dead 2) Demonstrated how he was able to know beyond every reasonable doubt that he had NDE for 7 days despite it being known that people undergoing nde lose perception of time. |
