Predicting early recovery of consciousness after cardiac arrest supported by quantitative electroencephalography.
To determine the ability of quantitative electroencephalography (QEEG) to improve the accuracy of predicting recovery of consciousness by post-cardiac arrest day 10. ⋯ Adding quantitative EEG metrics to established predictors of recovery allows modest improvement of prediction accuracy for recovery of consciousness, when obtained within a week of cardiac arrest. Further research is needed to determine the best strategy for integration of QEEG data into prognostic models in this patient population.
