- Five appendices were prepared by the staff of the President's Commission, but were not formally adopted by the Commission. These include: “Glossary of Terms,” “Studies in Outcome in Comatose, Artificially‐Respirated Patients,” “Statutes on the Determination of Death,” “Judicial Developments in the Definition of Death,” and “International Rules.” A sixth appendix, “Guidelines for the Determination of Death,” is a statement prepared and endorsed by a group of expert physician consultants to the Commission, but also not formally adopted by the Commission. This document is the most notable of the appendices because it provides the current specific guidelines by which physicians should determine death.

- Specific tests and procedures are described for the determination of death. This guide stipulates which “functions of the entire brain” are referred to in the UDDA statute, and shows how they should be measured. The description of the tests and procedures is exceedingly authoritative and represents the state‐of‐the‐art as of 1981. The guide has been published in the Journal of the American Medical Association (246 [1981] 2184‐86) and will serve as an important reference for physicians. As new developments in future technology permit simpler and more rapid means for determining death, these guidelines will need to be updated. For the present, they are the most authoritative death determination guidelines available to physicians.
