Journal ArticleDOI

Mild therapeutic hypothermia to improve the neurologic outcome after cardiac arrest

TL;DR: In patients who have been successfully resuscitated after cardiac arrest due to ventricular fibrillation, therapeutic mild hypothermia increased the rate of a favorable neurologic outcome and reduced mortality.
Journal ArticleDOI

Hypothermia for neuroprotection after cardiac arrest: systematic review and individual patient data meta-analysis.

TL;DR: Mild therapeutic hypothermia improves short-term neurologic recovery and survival in patients resuscitated from cardiac arrest of presumed cardiac origin and its long-term effectiveness and feasibility at an organizational level need further research.
Journal ArticleDOI

Hyperthermia After Cardiac Arrest Is Associated With an Unfavorable Neurologic Outcome

TL;DR: Hyperthermia is a potential factor for an unfavorable functional neurologic recovery after successful cardiopulmonary resuscitation and is correlated to the best-achieved cerebral performance categories' score within 6 months.
Journal ArticleDOI

Pulmonary Embolism as Cause of Cardiac Arrest: Presentation and Outcome

TL;DR: Thrombolysis should be attempted to achieve return of spontaneous circulation and probably better outcome of patients with cardiac arrest after PE admitted to the emergency department of an urban tertiary care hospital.
Journal ArticleDOI

Efficacy and safety of endovascular cooling after cardiac arrest: cohort study and Bayesian approach.

TL;DR: Endovascular cooling improved survival and short-term neurological recovery compared with standard treatment in comatose adult survivors of cardiac arrest and temperature control was effective and safe with this device.
