EEG reactivity in neurologic prognostication in post-cardiac arrest patients: A narrative review
Study context
- Population
- Comatose patients after cardiac arrest
Main finding
As reported in the abstract
- EEG reactivity (EEG-R) is a promising early predictor of arousal in comatose patients after cardiac arrest
- EEG-R testing methods remain heterogeneous across studies despite guidelines advocating its integration into multimodal prognostication
- Quantitative approaches and machine learning models developed to reduce interrater variability; validation studies needed
- Neurophysiological mechanisms and neuroanatomical correlates of EEG-R not fully understood
