Postmortem Chemotherapy
From Gomerpedia
Recently approved by the FDA, postmortem chemotherapy is a radical form of medical treatment in which "a ray of hope is offered to those who are no longer with us" by administering chemotherapy anywhere within 1 month and up to 5 years after a patient's death.[1]
Patient Selection
Candidates for postmortem chemotherapy most undergo a rigorous selection process during which they must prove their lack of functional status but are clearly still "a fighter."[2]
Does It Work?
If postmortem chemotherapy continues its current rate of success, then by the end of 2017 100% of decreased patients should remain dead.
