Clinical death is simply when a casualty has stopped breathing. This results in oxygen not entering the body which eventually results in death of body tissues and cardiac arrest.

There are many causes of clinical death such as suffocation, asphyxiation, drowning, injuries, poisoning, and anaphylaxis.

Biological death is much more severe. It is when brain cells die because of lack of oxygen (hypoxia). Biological death follows clinical death. As such, responding to clinical death early enough and performing proper rescue techniques render the best chance of preventing biological death from taking place. Of course, getting advanced medical help as quickly as possible is also important.
