Due to technological advancement of medicine, patients have been maintained through mechanical ventilation and vasoactive drugs despite complete and irreversible brain injuries. Accurate diagnosis of brain death (BD) reduces costs, shortens family’s suffering, and increases availability of intensive care beds and organs for transplantation. Guidelines were created to standardize BD diagnostic parameters, but knowledge of medical students and medical professionals has been demonstrated to be insufficient. To assist health professionals’ in BD determination, a digital training tool that contained images, videos and interactive content was developed for desktops and mobile devices. Software to create and animate 3D models (MakeHuman™ and Blender™) and a game development platform (Unity) were used. Versions for all the major operating systems (iOS™, Android™, macOS™, Windows™ and Linux™) are being made available through online repositories and mobile application stores.
