After reading 91 and 92, I’m almost certain that we weren’t told something very important about what Harry did from the death of Hermione to the end of chapter 92. I just can’t believe Harry Potter, the one who would raze Azkaban at the cost of his life before seeing Hermione send to it would just accept her death and not try to do the impossible again and again to save her. He even swore to “torn apart the fabric of reality” if it’s required to help her.
And yet, there are dozens of things he could have tried but apparently didn’t try. He didn’t try to replace the “oxygenation potion” with a different potion, and when he faced Snape, he didn’t even ask Snape if there would be any potion that could be useful. When he met his father, a skilled biochemist, he didn’t ask him anything about how to preserve brains. He didn’t ask Quirrell if there was a ritual that could freeze Hermione (either cryonics-like, or a kind of temporal stasis) until he discovers a way of resurrecting her. He didn’t ask McGonagall if there would be a way to transmute her brain into a diamond-like or whatever substance that would keep the configuration of her brain stable in time. He didn’t try to get Hermione to Alcor.
He didn’t even try to use his time-turner just to get more time to think and try to find solutions, according to what we were given to read.
So, either he’s just so full of pain that he’s broken and unable to think, but it doesn’t seem at all like that, or he must have tried many other things, much better than those few ideas (some which I got from the comments here). And if he didn’t ask anyone for help, while he usually does when needed, it’s because he already knew what to do.
