When is someone considered medically dead?

Is it enough with a heart that doesn’t beat anymore even if there still is brain function? How are we medically sure that even if there is no brain function someone is dead?

Medical death is when there is no heartbeat. It does not mean that someone is dead permanently – if CPR restarts their heart, they will no longer be medically dead.
