Why the study?
Does standard intermittent EEG have comparable performance to continuous EEG for outcome prognostication and identification of epileptiform transients in comatose survivors of cardiac arrest treated with hypothermia?
Does standard intermittent EEG have comparable performance to continuous EEG for outcome prognostication and identification of epileptiform transients in comatose survivors of cardiac arrest treated with hypothermia?
Standard intermittent EEG has comparable performance to continuous EEG for identifying prognostic variables and epileptiform transients in comatose cardiac arrest survivors, which is highly relevant for centers with limited EEG resources.
No takes yet. Share an insight, caveat, or question.
May support intermittent EEG in resource-limited post-arrest care; leaves open prospective validation of outcome equivalence.
Alvarez et al. (2013) studied this question.
