pubmed-article:9380257 | pubmed:abstractText | The authors present the results of spinal cord function evaluation in organ donors by examination of reflexes. The knee reflex and ankle jerk, as well as abdominal reflex and foot withdrawal reaction were tested in 31 donors. At least one of the above was seen in 25 individuals. It is suggested on the basis of data obtained not to hamper the transplant procedure in cases of tested reflex persistency when brain death is revealed on relevant examination. | lld:pubmed |
