Cerebral perfusion and metabolism coupling during a critical time window provides rapid assessment of cardiac arrest severity and prognosis in a preclinical model

Robert H. Wilson, Christian Crouzet, Mohammad Torabzadeh, Afsheen K. Bazrafkan, Niki Maki, Juan Alcocer, Bruce J. Tromberg, Bernard Choi, Yama Akbari

The paper measures cerebral perfusion and metabolism metrics post-cardiac arrest in rats to assess severity and prognosis, finding that CBF/CMRO2 ratio at 1 min post-resuscitation predicts neurological recovery with 87% accuracy.
