Combination of Early EEG, Brain CT, and Ammonia Level Is Useful to Predict Neurologic Outcome in Children Resuscitated From Cardiac Arrest

Combination of Early EEG, Brain CT, and Ammonia Level Is Useful to Predict Neurologic Outcome in Children Resuscitated From Cardiac Arrest

Purpose: Predicting neurologic prognosis in pediatric patients recovered after cardiac arrest is more difficult than in adults. This study hypothesized that a combination model of early electroencephalography, brain computed tomography (CT), and laboratory findings improve prediction performance of...
