Abstract
Electroencephalography is an accessible, portable, noninvasive and safe means of evaluating a patient's brain activity. It can aid in diagnosis and management decisions for post-cardiac arrest patients with seizures, myoclonus and other non-epileptic movements. It also plays an important role in a multimodal approach to neuroprognostication predicting both poor and favorable outcomes. Individuals ordering, performing and interpreting these tests, regardless of the indication, should understand the supporting evidence, logistical considerations, limitations and impact the results may have on postarrest patients and their families as outlined herein.

Abstract
Cardiac arrest is common and deadly, affecting up to 700 000 people in the United States annually. Advanced cardiac life support measures are commonly used to improve outcomes. This "2023 American Heart Association Focused Update on Adult Advanced Cardiovascular Life Support" summarizes the most recent published evidence for and recommendations on the use of medications, temperature management, percutaneous coronary angiography, extracorporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitation, and seizure management in this population. We discuss the lack of data in recent cardiac arrest literature that limits our ability to evaluate diversity, equity, and inclusion in this population. Last, we consider how the cardiac arrest population may make up an important pool of organ donors for those awaiting organ transplantation.

2022;386(8):724-734. doi:10.1056/NEJMoa2115998 Background: Whether the treatment of rhythmic and periodic electroencephalographic (EEG)
patterns in comatose survivors of cardiac arrest improves outcomes is uncertain. Methods: We conducted an open-label trial of suppressing rhythmic and periodic EEG patterns
detected on continuous EEG monitoring in comatose survivors of cardiac arrest.
Patients were randomly assigned in a 1:1 ratio to a stepwise strategy of antiseizure
medications to suppress this activity for at least 48 consecutive hours plus
standard care (antiseizure-treatment group) or to standard care alone (control
group); standard care included targeted temperature management in both groups. The
primary outcome was neurologic outcome according to the score on the Cerebral
Performance Category (CPC) scale at 3 months, dichotomized as a good outcome (CPC
score indicating no, mild, or moderate disability) or a poor outcome (CPC score
indicating severe disability, coma, or death). Secondary outcomes were mortality,
length of stay in the intensive care unit (ICU), and duration of mechanical
ventilation. Results: We enrolled 172 patients, with 88 assigned to the antiseizure-treatment group and
84 to the control group. Rhythmic or periodic EEG activity was detected a median of
35 hours after cardiac arrest; 98 of 157 patients (62%) with available data had
myoclonus. Complete suppression of rhythmic and periodic EEG activity for 48
consecutive hours occurred in 49 of 88 patients (56%) in the antiseizure-treatment
group and in 2 of 83 patients (2%) in the control group. At 3 months, 79 of 88
patients (90%) in the antiseizure-treatment group and 77 of 84 patients (92%) in the
control group had a poor outcome (difference, 2 percentage points; 95% confidence
interval, −7 to 11; P = 0.68). Mortality at 3 months was 80% in the
antiseizure-treatment group and 82% in the control group. The mean length of stay in
the ICU and mean duration of mechanical ventilation were slightly longer in the
antiseizure-treatment group than in the control group. Conclusions: In comatose survivors of cardiac arrest, the incidence of a poor neurologic outcome
at 3 months did not differ significantly between a strategy of suppressing rhythmic
and periodic EEG activity with the use of antiseizure medication for at least 48
hours plus standard care and standard care alone.

Prediction of good neurological outcome in comatose survivors of cardiac arrest: a systematic review. Intensive Care Med 2022; 48:389-413. [PMID: 35244745 PMCID: PMC8940794 DOI: 10.1007/s00134-022-06618-z] [Citation(s) in RCA: 51] [Impact Index Per Article: 25.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/03/2021] [Accepted: 01/03/2022] [Indexed: 12/11/2022]
Abstract
PURPOSE To assess the ability of clinical examination, blood biomarkers, electrophysiology or neuroimaging assessed within 7 days from return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC) to predict good neurological outcome, defined as no, mild, or moderate disability (CPC 1-2 or mRS 0-3) at discharge from intensive care unit or later, in comatose adult survivors from cardiac arrest (CA). METHODS PubMed, EMBASE, Web of Science and the Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews were searched. Sensitivity and specificity for good outcome were calculated for each predictor. The risk of bias was assessed using the QUIPS tool. RESULTS A total of 37 studies were included. Due to heterogeneities in recording times, predictor thresholds, and definition of some predictors, meta-analysis was not performed. A withdrawal or localisation motor response to pain immediately or at 72-96 h after ROSC, normal blood values of neuron-specific enolase (NSE) at 24 h-72 h after ROSC, a short-latency somatosensory evoked potentials (SSEPs) N20 wave amplitude > 4 µV or a continuous background without discharges on electroencephalogram (EEG) within 72 h from ROSC, and absent diffusion restriction in the cortex or deep grey matter on MRI on days 2-7 after ROSC predicted good neurological outcome with more than 80% specificity and a sensitivity above 40% in most studies. Most studies had moderate or high risk of bias. CONCLUSIONS In comatose cardiac arrest survivors, clinical, biomarker, electrophysiology, and imaging studies identified patients destined to a good neurological outcome with high specificity within the first week after cardiac arrest (CA).

Abstract
Seizures are frequently triggered by an inciting event and result from uninhibited excitation and/or decreased inhibition of a pool of neurons. If physiologic seizure abortive mechanisms fail, the ensuing unrestrained synchronization of neurons-status epilepticus-can be life-threatening and is associated with the potential for marked morbidity in survivors and high medical care costs. Prognosis is intimately related to etiology and its response to therapeutic measures. Timely implementation of pharmacologic therapy while concurrently performing a stepwise workup for etiology are paramount. Neurodiagnostic testing should guide titration of pharmacologic therapies, and help determine if there is a role for immune modulation.

Abstract
Cardiac arrest survivors comprise a heterogeneous population, in which the etiology of arrest, systemic and neurologic comorbidities, and sequelae of post-cardiac arrest syndrome influence the severity of secondary brain injury. The degree of secondary neurologic injury can be modifiable and is influenced by factors that alter cerebral physiology. Neuromonitoring techniques provide tools for evaluating the evolution of physiologic variables over time. This article reviews the pathophysiology of hypoxic-ischemic brain injury, provides an overview of the neuromonitoring tools available to identify risk profiles for secondary brain injury, and highlights the importance of an individualized approach to post cardiac arrest care.

Abstract
Neuromonitoring with electroencephalography (EEG) is an essential tool in neurological prognostication post-cardiac arrest. EEG allows reliable and real-time assessment of early changes in background patterns, development of seizures and epileptiform activity, as well as testing for background reactivity to stimuli despite use of sedation or targeted temperature management. Delayed emergence of consciousness post-cardiac arrest is common, therefore longitudinal monitoring of EEG allows the detection of trends indicative of neurological improvement before coma recovery can be observed clinically. In this review, we summarize essential recent literature in EEG monitoring for neurological prognostication post-cardiac arrest in the context of targeted temperature management, with a particular focus on the importance of the evolution of EEG patterns in the first few days following resuscitation.

Abstract
This 2020 International Consensus on Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation and Emergency Cardiovascular Care Science With Treatment Recommendations for advanced life support includes updates on multiple advanced life support topics addressed with 3 different types of reviews. Topics were prioritized on the basis of both recent interest within the resuscitation community and the amount of new evidence available since any previous review. Systematic reviews addressed higher-priority topics, and included double-sequential defibrillation, intravenous versus intraosseous route for drug administration during cardiac arrest, point-of-care echocardiography for intra-arrest prognostication, cardiac arrest caused by pulmonary embolism, postresuscitation oxygenation and ventilation, prophylactic antibiotics after resuscitation, postresuscitation seizure prophylaxis and treatment, and neuroprognostication. New or updated treatment recommendations on these topics are presented. Scoping reviews were conducted for anticipatory charging and monitoring of physiological parameters during cardiopulmonary resuscitation. Topics for which systematic reviews and new Consensuses on Science With Treatment Recommendations were completed since 2015 are also summarized here. All remaining topics reviewed were addressed with evidence updates to identify any new evidence and to help determine which topics should be the highest priority for systematic reviews in the next 1 to 2 years.

Abstract
Emergency clinicians often resuscitate cardiac arrest patients, and after acute resuscitation, clinicians face multiple decisions regarding disposition. Recent evidence suggests that out-of-hospital cardiac arrest patients with return of spontaneous circulation have higher odds of survival to hospital discharge, long-term survival, and improved functional outcomes when treated at centers that can provide advanced multidisciplinary care. For community clinicians, a high volume cardiac arrest center may be hours away. While current guidelines recommend against neurological prognostication in the first hours or days after return of spontaneous circulation, there are early findings suggestive of irrecoverable brain injury in which the patient would receive no benefit from transfer. In this Concepts article, we describe a simplified approach to quickly evaluate neurological status in cardiac arrest patients and identify findings concerning for irrecoverable brain injury. Characteristics of the arrest and resuscitation, initial neurological assessment, and brain computed tomography together can identify patients with high likelihood of irrecoverable anoxic injury. Patients who may benefit from centers with access to continuous electroencephalography are discussed. This approach can be used to identify patients who may benefit from rapid transfer to cardiac arrest centers versus those who may benefit from care close to home. Risk stratification also can provide realistic expectations for recovery to families.

Prediction of poor neurological outcome in comatose survivors of cardiac arrest: a systematic review. Intensive Care Med 2020; 46:1803-1851. [PMID: 32915254 PMCID: PMC7527362 DOI: 10.1007/s00134-020-06198-w] [Citation(s) in RCA: 153] [Impact Index Per Article: 38.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/29/2020] [Accepted: 07/15/2020] [Indexed: 12/17/2022]
Abstract
Purpose To assess the ability of clinical examination, blood biomarkers, electrophysiology, or neuroimaging assessed within 7 days from return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC) to predict poor neurological outcome, defined as death, vegetative state, or severe disability (CPC 3–5) at hospital discharge/1 month or later, in comatose adult survivors from cardiac arrest (CA). Methods PubMed, EMBASE, Web of Science, and the Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews (January 2013–April 2020) were searched. Sensitivity and false-positive rate (FPR) for each predictor were calculated. Due to heterogeneities in recording times, predictor thresholds, and definition of some predictors, meta-analysis was not performed. Results Ninety-four studies (30,200 patients) were included. Bilaterally absent pupillary or corneal reflexes after day 4 from ROSC, high blood values of neuron-specific enolase from 24 h after ROSC, absent N20 waves of short-latency somatosensory-evoked potentials (SSEPs) or unequivocal seizures on electroencephalogram (EEG) from the day of ROSC, EEG background suppression or burst-suppression from 24 h after ROSC, diffuse cerebral oedema on brain CT from 2 h after ROSC, or reduced diffusion on brain MRI at 2–5 days after ROSC had 0% FPR for poor outcome in most studies. Risk of bias assessed using the QUIPS tool was high for all predictors. Conclusion In comatose resuscitated patients, clinical, biochemical, neurophysiological, and radiological tests have a potential to predict poor neurological outcome with no false-positive predictions within the first week after CA. Guidelines should consider the methodological concerns and limited sensitivity for individual modalities.
