It is the beginning of a good sign.
In fact, it is a proud moment for Osmania General Hospital after the brain death declaration of Bhanu Kumar, 30, resident of Amberpet, was signed by doctors.
He was declared brain dead on 24/ l l / 2017 in Osmania General Hospital. His relatives agreed to donate his organs through Jeevandan.
Though private hospitals have been converting more number of brain death patients for cadaver organ transplants, years of reluctance in signing brain death declaration by government doctors had killed many terminally ill patients without a transplant.
Under rules, a neurologist or neurosurgeon needs to sign on the brain death declaration report but this seems to have changed now.
NEW MILESTONE

The liver transplant recipient was a 27 years old female from Hyderabad.
