They emphasize the importance of factors such as patient preparation, addressing elevated intracranial pressure, implications of interventions on body temperature, apnea testing challenges in patients on ECMO, and resource limitations in conducting detailed brain death evaluations. Suggestions include thorough pre-oxygenation, vigilance during apnea testing, and involving interdisciplinary teams like palliative care for complex cases. Additionally, strategies for dealing with family refusal of exams, adherence to guidelines, and ongoing training and certification are highlighted.
