EEG synchronization measures are early outcome predictors in comatose patients after cardiac arrest

Highlights • Predicting neurological outcome after cardiac arrest remains a challenging task. • Bivariate EEG synchronization measures can contribute to early prognostication. • Further studies are needed to evaluate the place of quantitative EEG within multi-modal prognostic algorithms.
