Best Answer - Chosen by Voters

A person whose brain may have been irreversibly injured can now be kept alive by maintaining the circulation of oxygenated blood to the brain stem by artificial means.
According to modern thinking, if a person cannot spontaneously pick up and survive when the artificial means are withdrawn, he is presumed to be dead.
Clinical death is the medical term for cessation of blood circulation and breathing, the two necessary criteria to sustain life. It occurs when the heart stops beating in a regular rhythm, a condition called cardiac arrest.
