This unit we will be talking about understanding brain death. During the live chat we talked about Jahi McMath the 13 year old girl who had a bad outcome during a sleep apnea procedure.
This young girl procedure ended with her being brain dead and the hospital wanting to terminate all attempts to change the outcome. The family ended up moving her to an undisclosed location for care.
As current and future healthcare leaders, how does this impact the outcomes patients have? Does it help to reduce cost/expenses? Just somethings to consider during this unit.
