Therapeutic hypothermia after cardiac arrest: outcome predictors
OBJECTIVE The determination of coma patient prognosis after cardiac arrest has clinical, ethical and social implications. Neurological examination, imaging and biochemical markers are helpful tools accepted as reliable in predicting recovery. With the advent of therapeutic hypothermia, these data need to be reconfirmed. In this study, we attempted to determine the validity of different markers,...
متن کاملPrimary cardiac angiosarcoma confirmed by multimodality imaging guided liver biopsy.
Primary cardiac angiosarcoma is an extremely rare malignant tumor with various clinical presentations but usually in late stage. We report a case presented with bloody pericardial effusion, in which the final diagnosis was confirmed by multiple imaging modalities such as echocardiography, computed tomography, magnetic resonance imaging and fluorine-18-fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomogr...
متن کاملReply to: Therapeutic hypothermia after cardiac arrest: outcome predictors
We would like to thank the interest paid to our study and the valuable comments regarding it.(1) Herein, we clarify the comments and questions raised. Despite advances in cardiopulmonary resuscitation, cardiac arrest is still associated with high morbidity and mortality.(2) Survival of these patients depends on the quality of care, and despite the fact that basic and advanced life support have ...
متن کاملTherapeutic hypothermia and neurological outcome after cardiac arrest.
INTRODUCTION/AIM The most important clinically relevant cause of global cerebral ischemia is cardiac arrest. Clinical studies showed a marked neuroprotective effect of mild hypothermia in resuscitation. The aim of this study was to evaluate the impact of mild hypothermia on neurological outcome and survival of the patients in coma, after cardiac arrest and return of spontaneous circulation. M...
متن کاملTo: Therapeutic hypothermia after cardiac arrest: outcome predictors
Determining the neurological prognosis of patients who have suffered cardiac arrest is extremely important because it allows the physician to inform the family about the life expectancy of their beloved relative, as well as to wisely plan for the allocation of available resources. We read with great interest the study performed by Leão et al., who assessed factors associated with worse neurolog...
