✓ Staff neurosurgeons and residents at a tertiary care hospital designated as a transplant center were surveyed regarding personal opinions concerning brain death and family conferences. Compared to an extensive survey done in 1976, the responses indicated that, while a professional consensus regarding the definition and meaning of brain death has emerged in the past 10 years, a range of personal beliefs and opinions regarding the concept still exists. In spite of the professional consensus, it is still difficult for the physician to communicate gently, yet firmly, to families both the scientific groundwork that validates the determination of brain death, the concept, and the finality of the information.
