Bedside detection and early treatment of lasting cerebral ischemia may improve outcome
after out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA). This feasibility study explores the possibilities to …

Aim Out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) is associated with poor prognosis. Cerebral
microdialysis (CMD) is an efficient sampling technique to detect neurochemical changes in …

Objective After cardiac resuscitation, hypoxic encephalopathy often is the limiting factor
regarding outcome due to the oxygen sensitivity of the brain. Intracerebral microdialysis is a …

Background Neurological injuries remain the leading cause of death in comatose patients
resuscitated from out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA). Adequate blood pressure is of …

Cerebral metabolic alterations during cardiac arrest, cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR)
and extracorporeal cardiopulmonary life support (ECLS) are poorly explored. Markers are …

Background In clinical practice, monitoring of the efficacy of resuscitation can be
challenging. The prediction of cerebral and overall outcome in particular is an unmet …

Cerebral microdialysis is a well-established laboratory tool that is increasingly used as a
bedside monitor to provide on-line analysis of brain tissue biochemistry during …

The microdialysis technique was initially developed for monitoring neurotransmitters in
animals. In 1995 the technique was adopted to clinical use and bedside enzymatic analysis …

Background and Purpose: Microdialysis is an established tool to analyse tissue
biochemistry, but the value of this technique to monitor cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) …

Microdialysis has matured into being a standard clinical monitoring modality that takes its
place alongside intracranial pressure and brain tissue oxygen tension measurement in …
