Individualized perfusion targets in hypoxic ischemic brain injury after cardiac arrest

Abstract Secondary injury is a major determinant of outcome in hypoxic ischemic brain injury (HIBI) after cardiac arrest and may be mitigated by optimizing cerebral oxygen delivery (CDO2). CDO2 is determined by cerebral blood flow (CBF), which is dependent upon mean arterial pressure (MAP). In healt...
