Background Predicting neurological outcome in comatose survivors of cardiac arrest relies
on clinical findings, radiological and neurophysiological test results. To evaluate the …

Despite changes in guideline-based management of moderate/severe traumatic brain injury
(TBI) over the preceding decades, little impact on mortality and morbidity have been seen …

Death by neurologic criteria (DNC), commonly known as ''brain death''(BD), is defined as the
irreversible cessation of consciousness and brainstem responses in a plausible clinical …

ABSTRACT BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Brain death determination (BDD) is primarily a
clinical diagnosis, where death is defined as the permanent loss of brainstem function. In …

Background: Brain death/death by neurologic criteria (BD/DNC) guidelines are routinely
analyzed, compared and updated in the majority of countries and are later implemented as …

Abstract Purpose of Review The purpose of this study is to provide an updated review on
neurological prognostication in comatose patients after cardiac arrest in light of current …

BACKGROUND Adequate cerebral perfusion is crucial for a positive neurological outcome
in trauma; however, it is difficult to characterize in the acute setting with noninvasive …

Introduction Severe traumatic brain injury (TBI) is a catastrophic neurological condition with
significant economic burden. Early in-hospital mortality (< 48 hours) with severe TBI is …

Targeted temperature management (TTM) is a recommended neuroprotective intervention
for coma after out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA). However, controversies exist …

OBJECTIVE. The purposes of this study were to assess the feasibility and safety of perfusion
CT of patients with severe traumatic brain injury (TBI) at hospital admission and to examine …
