The study highlights how brain death induces ventricular dysfunction, like the patterns observed in TT, and highlights the potential reversibility of these dysfunctions, with important implications for optimizing the use of donor hearts in circulatory arrest. In addition, autonomic modulation is addressed as a promising therapeutic avenue to improve prognosis and reduce adverse events. The work underscores the need for innovative approaches to clinical management and future research that facilitates the development of therapeutic strategies targeting autonomic activity and inflammation.}, issn = {2375-1924}, doi = {10.18103/mra.v12i12.6023}, url = {https://esmed.org/MRA/mra/article/view/6023} }
