Key result
A multimodal approach integrating clinical examination, neurophysiological tests, biomarkers, and neuroimaging provides the most reliable prognostic information for neurological outcomes in AMI patients after out-of-hospital cardiac arrest.
Why the study?
Neurological outcomes of OHCA survivors are critical, highlighting the need for prompt and accurate neurological assessment in AMI patients who experience OHCA.
A multimodal approach integrating clinical examination, neurophysiological tests, biomarkers, and neuroimaging is essential for accurate neurological prognostication and guiding treatment decisions in patients with AMI-induced OHCA.
Highlights need for prompt neuro assessment in AMI-OHCA survivors; leaves optimal tools and protocols open for validation.
Out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) remains a significant global health concern, and acute myocardial infarction (AMI) is a common underlying cause.The neurological outcomes of survivors are of paramount importance, highlighting the need for a prompt and accurate neurological assessment.This review synthesizes current evidence and best practices for early neurological evaluations in AMI patients who have experienced OHCA.We explore various assessment tools, biomarkers, and imaging techniques, discussing their efficacy, limitations, and prognostic value.Additionally, we examine the impact of early neurological assessment on treatment decisions, resource allocation, and long-term patient outcomes.This comprehensive analysis aims to provide clinicians and researchers with an up-to-date understanding of the management of patients who experience AMI due to OHCA from the standpoint of neurological sequelae, offering insights into optimizing patient care and guiding future research directions.

Jeong-Am Ryu (2025) conducted a review in Acute Myocardial Infarction with Out-of-Hospital Cardiac Arrest. Early neurological assessment was evaluated. A multimodal approach integrating clinical examination, neurophysiological tests, biomarkers, and neuroimaging provides the most reliable prognostic information for neurological outcomes in AMI patients after out-of-hospital cardiac arrest.
