A case of traumatic cardiopulmonary arrest with good neurological outcome predicted by amplitude-integrated electroencephalogram

Highlights • Traumatic cardiopulmonary arrest requires unique therapeutic approaches, although angiography and percutaneous coronary intervention are often required in other forms of arythmogenic cardiopulmonary arrest. • Amplitude-integrated electroencephalogram was useful for traumatic cardiopulmo...

Description
Summary:Highlights • Traumatic cardiopulmonary arrest requires unique therapeutic approaches, although angiography and percutaneous coronary intervention are often required in other forms of arythmogenic cardiopulmonary arrest. • Amplitude-integrated electroencephalogram was useful for traumatic cardiopulmonary arrest to predict the neurological outcome in the early stage of clinical course. • Amplitude-integrated electroencephalogram may help clinicians to start invasive and intensive treatments in a case of traumatic cardiopulmonary arrest.
