The Resurrection device was a piece of alien technology that could at least temporarily bring people back from the dead, similar to the resurrection gauntlets. It was used by Vastra and Jenny Flint to heal Strax's wounds after the Battle of Demons Run. It was later used by Strax in an attempt to save Clara Oswald.
Capabilities and limitations
According to Vastra, the resurrection device could bring anyone back to life "for a while". It was never shown exactly how serious Strax's injuries were in the battle of Demons Run, but the resurrection device succeeded in reviving him and according to Vastra he had made a full recovery. Jenny thought that Strax had never truly died, saying she thought he had just fainted, which most likely helped the technology keep him from passing away since it didn't have to actually pull him back out of death.(TV: Demon's Run; Two Days Later)
Once somebody had actually died, the resurrection device could revive them but with limited success, depending on the exact severity of the injuries. Clara Oswald had broken most of her bones and injured her internal organs after falling off a cloud and the technology could only partially heal such severe injuries, only being able to bring Clara back to life for a short time. Despite Strax's best efforts to save her, Clara eventually died.(TV The Snowmen)
