What is another word for cerebral death?
Pronunciation: [səɹˈiːbɹə͡l dˈɛθ] (IPA) 
Cerebral death refers to the irreversible cessation of brain function, leading to the person's death. However, this term is rarely used in medical circles due to its negative connotations. Instead, doctors and healthcare providers may use phrases such as "brain death," "complete loss of brain function," or "neurological death." These synonyms help to accurately describe the condition while avoiding any unnecessary emotional distress for those involved. In some cases, "clinical death" may also be used to describe a temporary cessation of vital functions, such as breathing or heart rate, that can be reversed with medical intervention.
