Doctors bring pig’s brain back to life, with functioning activity, nearly an hour after the animal died
End Time Headlines ^ | 10/24 | Staff

A pig’s brain has been brought back to life, with functioning activity, nearly an hour after the animal had died. The eerie experiment aims to figure out how doctors can restore brain function to a patient who has suffered a sudden cardiac arrest.

Sudden cardiac arrest stops blood flow from reaching the brain, which can cause serious, irreparable damage within minutes. This is why the resuscitation window for a cardiac arrest is so short.

How much memory loss and other cerebral damage did the pig suffer? How can they even measure it?

A LOT! :)

It’s been known for a while that brain cells die over a number of hours after a dr. would declare “death”.

But youire right...functional...that can mean a lot of things.

Maybe it can burp :)

And not to sound stupid, though I sometimes am :) ....any differencc in the life span of cells from animal to animal?

I would guess not. But I dunno :)

...This life support system included an artificial heart and lungs to pump fluid through the brain... when a pig’s liver was incorporated into the system, the brain was able to switch back on, and remain active for several hours...

Wonder if that's how they've been keeping Brandon going for the last four years...

Wonder what tests they did prior so they can tell if the pig can function at the same or near same level as prior.

Reminds one of C.S. Lewis’ book “That Hideous Strength.”

I love bacon, ham, pork chops, ribs and shredded pork, but this is just animal cruelty.

Let the pig die, in order to provide us nourishment, and not keep bringing it back!

Usually in a report like this, where the story borders on the implausible, they omit all of the ‘however’s’.

While I have shed swimming pools of tears over the death of loved ones, I do not trust the direction of this exploration.

Extended artificial resuscitation....typical media idiots who don’t know ANYTHING repeating an announcement and trying to shape it into a clickable report.
Note: brain was removed from poor pigs head...had artificial heart pumping chemical cocktail to mimic blood and nutrients.. Brain was flushed of blood and clots.
So some activity in brain seen...what, eeg? Metabolism? Decision making?
Such a non technical report. Where’s the snake oil salesman?
Belongs in an AI voice generated advertisement on YouTube interrupting a video...”do this overnite and shrink your prostate forever”

By definition, this just means it hadn’t died.
