Arkas even turns his nihilistic satire against his own poetics, by having the final voice heard (for the first time) in the play be that of the surgeon pronouncing death and organ harvesting, thus reminding his rapt audience that this whole drama of desperate survival has been nothing but the imperceptible death of one drunk loser.
She died on Saturday in her sleep at home, with doctors formally pronouncing death at Ysbyty Glan Clwyd.
The Nurses Association of New Brunswick (NANB) encourages employers to develop policies that support RNs in pronouncing death.
The physician will then pronounce the patient dead or, to provide an additional margin of safety, in some cases will wait an additional two to five minutes after cardiac function has stopped before pronouncing death.
