Aim Neurological emergencies can lead to cardiac arrest, and post-arrest patients can
develop life-threatening neurological abnormalities. This study aims to estimate and …

Objective Neuroprognostication guidelines suggest that early head computed tomography
(HCT) might be useful in the evaluation of cardiac arrest (CA) patients following return of …

Background We compared the ability of head computed tomography (HCT) and MRI,
respectively, obtained before or after target temperature management to predict neurologic …

Patients who initially survive cardiac arrest are often admitted to an intensive care unit
comatose and on mechanical ventilation. It is not clear whether or not a screening cranial …

Aim Determine the frequency with which computed tomography (CT) after out-of-hospital
cardiac arrest (OHCA) identifies clinically important findings. Methods We included non …

Background Few data characterize the role of brain computed tomography (CT) after
resuscitation from in-hospital cardiac arrest (IHCA). We hypothesized that identifying a …

Head computed tomography (HCT) is often performed postcardiac arrest to assess for
hypoxic-ischemic brain injury. Our primary objective was to assess whether cerebral edema …

INTRODUCTION: The incidence of out-of-hospital and in-hospital cardiorespiratory arrest
from all causes in the United States occurs not infrequently. Postresuscitation care should …

Background Mortality after out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) with return of spontaneous
circulation (ROSC) remains high despite numerous efforts to improve outcome. For patients …

In this issue of Resuscitation, Inamasu and colleagues present a prospective observational
study of brain computed tomography (CT) scanning in those with return of spontaneous …
