Where did flatlining come from? Have they ever used these machines or are these machines as they stand a Holywoodism to simplify things for the viewer? |

Where did flatlining come from? Ah, well if you get the chance to see it I would recommend it, it is very good. However, I have had a look through their forum and apparently it is quite a bit more subtle than they said on the show. As your wife indicates old.qi.com/talk/… |

Where did flatlining come from? Have you watched the tv show QI? They said on there that the idea of the continuous beep meaning no heartbeat was a myth and, if anything, it would mean the plug was out and the alarm for a stopped heart was loud and clear to attract the attention of staff. A quiet beep is unlikely to do that unless they are leaning over the bed watching (like they often are on tv). |

Where did flatlining come from? I was under this impression too but I watched an episode of QI where they explained that this was a myth. The machine has a backup battery which emits the beep when the machine is not plugged in (or something similar), so if you accidentally pull the plug you realise. If no pulse is being detected a more ... noticeable alarm is given to alert doctors who are probably not in the room. |

Why do the machines keep humans alive if they have nuclear reactors? Could the divebomber leave a comment to let me know what the issue is, please? |
