 I don't know how far I can believe it though. When you die, your body shuts down completely - your sense of awareness too. Even if your mind held an impression of consciousness for a short time after death, would you actually be aware of it? Could you think and react? I don't think so.

 I think it simply means, everything in your body doesn't just switch off at once at the moment of death. 
So the dying person would be conscious or semi-concious for a few minutes after their heart stops beating as everything then begins to shut down from lack of oxygen/blood flow. But I would've thought that was a fairly obvious thing and wouldn't require this new research. [emoji23]
