Abstract
China's "Criteria and practical guidance for determination of brain death (BD)" based on medicine was launched eight years ago. After joining the writing and publishing work of "The World Brain Death Project-Determination of Brain Death/Death by Neurologic Criteria", China has accelerated the process of internationalization. For this reason, the author expressed his own opinions on the related work progress and existing problems. (1) Although the criteria of BD in different countries are different due to various national conditions, cultures, religions and laws, we can seek common ground while reserving differences, such as the unification of the minimum criteria and the choice of confirmatory tests. (2) Although there are differences in the executive force of BD evaluation among countries around the world due to whether legislation or not, all walks of life and the public can respect the development of medicine. (3) Although there are still life support and organ donation problems to be solved after the determination of BD, they will be solved one by one through medical practice. In a word, we believe that the specification of BD determination in China will continue to advance orderly and rapidly.
