The revised Cerebral Recovery Index improves predictions of neurological outcome after cardiac arrest.

Clinical neurophysiology : official journal of the International Federation of Clinical Neurophysiology
OBJECTIVE: Analysis of the electroencephalogram (EEG) background pattern helps predicting neurological outcome of comatose patients after cardiac arrest (CA). Visual analysis may not extract all discriminative information. We present predictive value...

Therapeutic hypothermia in patients with coagulopathy following severe traumatic brain injury.

Scandinavian journal of trauma, resuscitation and emergency medicine
BACKGROUND: Coagulopathy in traumatic brain injury (TBI) has been associated with poor neurological outcomes and higher in-hospital mortality. In general principle of trauma management, hypothermia should be prevented as it directly worsens coagulopa...

Identifying Important Attributes for Prognostic Prediction in Traumatic Brain Injury Patients. A Hybrid Method of Decision Tree and Neural Network.

Methods of information in medicine
BACKGROUND: Generally, traumatic brain injury (TBI) patients do not have a stable condition, particularly after the first week of TBI. Hence, indicating the attributes in prognosis through a prediction model is of utmost importance since it helps car...

Detection of Brain Activation in Unresponsive Patients with Acute Brain Injury.

The New England journal of medicine
BACKGROUND: Brain activation in response to spoken motor commands can be detected by electroencephalography (EEG) in clinically unresponsive patients. The prevalence and prognostic importance of a dissociation between commanded motor behavior and bra...
