Have you ever wondered what happens after death? At first, this may seem like a spiritual question, to which different answers can be found in different philosophies, from Garuda Purana. In these it is said how and to which world our soul goes after death and what happens to it there.

But if we look at this subject from a scientific point of view, the questions and their answers will also change completely.

The question is, how long does which part of the body survive after death? It was only because of the scientific research carried out in this field that it became possible that science now saves the lives of millions of people every year through organ donation.

If we have donated our organs then they can give life to someone after our death. Our eyes can enter the new body and see the beautiful world again. Our heart can beat again in someone else’s body. The lungs can breathe again and our kidneys can filter toxins from someone else’s blood. Prime Minister Narendra Modi also spoke about the importance of organ donation in the 99th episode of ‘Mann Ki Baat’. Before this we have also talked in detail about organ donation.

So today’In the medical record‘ In this we will say what happens to our body after death. You will also learn that-

What happens to the body after death?

Generally, people understand that death means that the heart has stopped beating. While it is a whole long process. After the heartbeat stops, many things happen in the body in a long series. This process can be called decomposition.

What happens immediately after death?

With every minute that passes after death, some changes take place in all the organs. For example, the brain, the most important organ of our body, is completely dependent on the oxygen it receives through blood to survive. Therefore, he dies within a few minutes after the heartbeat stops. See in the graphic what changes occur in the body immediately after death.

What changes in the first hour after death?

Skin color begins to fade within an hour of death. The body temperature starts to drop. The muscles start to lose their flexibility. The liver stops working, but despite the lack of oxygen, it somehow tries to survive. In order to transplant it, it needs to be removed from the body immediately and stored.

What changes between 2 and 6 hours after death?

The situation is almost the same everywhere in the first hours after death. What happens after that depends on many factors such as cause of death, climate, temperature etc.

2 to 6 hours after death, chemical changes begin to occur in the body, and because of that the rigor mortis process begins. At this point the muscles of the body start to become stiff. The smallest muscles of the body are affected first. Its effect is on the muscles of the eyelids and jaw.

What happens 6 to 12 hours after death?

After so much time has passed after death, the muscles of the whole body become stiff and stiff. During this period the process of autolysis begins in the body. In this, a special enzyme is released from the cells of our body, which begins to break down the tissues and eat them. This is called decomposition. This means that the body’s purpose in this world has been fulfilled. Now, even if no one performs his last rites, nature will slowly disintegrate him and destroy him in her own way.

During this process, when all the organs of our body die one by one, if they are taken out of the body in time and preserved, then they can be transplanted into the body of a needy person. This can give a person new life.

How long after death can organs be removed for transplant?

After brain death, there is a lack of oxygen in the body. Without oxygen, the functioning of all organs begins to decline. Therefore, after death, they must be removed from the body as soon as possible and receive the necessary oxygen supply. For how long any organ can survive in the body, see the graphic below.
