Hypoxic-ischemic brain injury is a neurological disorder and is one of the most common and potentially devastating complications of cardiac arrest. Neurologic status and degree of brain injury are the main determinant of long-term functional status, besides the emotional burden incurred to families and financial costs associated with long-term care for neurologic devastated patients. This webinar aims to give the latest updates regarding this topic as well as recent approaches to those patients.
Topics:
- Timing of prognostication and decisions leading to the withdrawal of life-sustaining Therapies
- Deciphering the waves—the role of electrophysiologic tools in outcome prediction following cardiac arrest
- How can pictures help? The value of neuroimaging for prognosis after cardiac arrest
Date and time:
3 PM CET on 30th March, 2022
