Resumen
Las experiencias cercanas a la muerte (ECM) plantean importantes preguntas sin respuesta
sobre cambios en la actividad cerebral que tienen lugar en los momentos previos a la muerte,
así como en sueños y estados alterados en los que se informa que ocurren experiencias
similares. El hecho de que las ECM tienen lugar en respuesta tanto a traumas que amenazan
la vida como a situaciones que no amenazan la vida, sugiere que múltiples mecanismos
subyacen a la fenomenología de las ECM.
Las experiencias cercanas a la muerte se han caracterizado por ser vívidas y realistas, a veces
profundas, que cambian la vida, informadas por personas que han estado ya sea
fisiológicamente cerca de la muerte como en un paro cardíaco u otras condiciones médicas o
emergencias potencialmente mortales, o por personas que creían que la muerte era inminente.
La mayoría de las personas que experimentan una enfermedad o lesión potencialmente mortal
no informa experiencias cercanas a la muerte, mientras que un porcentaje significativo,
posiblemente la mayoría, de las personas que las informan nunca corren el riesgo de morir.
Características comúnmente descritas por las personas que informan tener experiencias
cercanas a la muerte incluyen una experiencia extracorpórea, profundos sentimientos de paz,
la sensación de moverse un túnel oscuro, la sensación de "ver" un brillante ligero,
experimentar una vívida revisión de los recuerdos de la vida (la llamada revisión de la vida)
y "encuentros" con parientes fallecidos, seres queridos o seres sobrenaturales.
Aunque las mismas características se informan en muchas experiencias cercanas a la muerte,
ninguna característica particular es descrita universalmente por todos los pacientes que las
experimentan y cada experiencia cercana a la muerte es única en términos de las
13
características que contiene, la relativa complejidad de las mismas y la secuencia o patrón en
el que se experimentan imágenes visuales, entre otras
Near-Death Experiences (NDEs) Raise Important Unanswered Questions about changes in brain activity that take place in the moments before death, as well as in dreams and altered states in which experiences are reported to occur Similar. The fact that NDEs occur in response to both traumas that threaten life as well as non-life-threatening situations, suggests that multiple mechanisms underlying the phenomenology of NDEs. Near-death experiences have been characterized as vivid and realistic, sometimes profound, life-changing insights, informed by people who have either been physiologically close to death such as in cardiac arrest or other medical conditions or life-threatening emergencies, or by people who believed death was imminent. Most people who experience a life-threatening illness or injury do not report near-death experiences, while a significant percentage, Possibly the majority of people who report them are never at risk of dying. Characteristics commonly described by people who report having experiences Near-death experiences include an out-of-body experience, deep feelings of peace, the feeling of moving through a dark tunnel, the feeling of "seeing" a bright light, experience a vivid review of life memories (the so-called life review) and "encounters" with deceased relatives, loved ones, or supernatural beings. Although the same characteristics are reported in many near-death experiences, No particular characteristic is universally described by all patients. experience and each near-death experience is unique in terms of the 13 characteristics it contains, their relative complexity and the sequence or pattern in which visual images are experienced, among others
