Steinberg A, et al. - Researchers aimed to identify electroencephalography (EEG) patterns that predict or preclude favorable response in comatose post-arrest patients receiving neurostimulants. In the current work, ominous EEG patterns after cardiac arrest did not preclude survival or awakening after neurostimulant administration. Although limited by their observational nature and potential for selection bias, the data suggested that EEG patterns alone should not affect consideration of neurostimulant use.
