Induced hypothermia after cardiac arrest is also called “active temperature control” or “targeted temperature management.” TTM2 found no improvement in survival or neurologic outcome among patients randomized to cooling to a target of 33 °C, as compared to controls receiving fever prevention (e.g.

Background: Previous observational studies published in 2015 (Geri 2015)(Vyas 2015) indicated that early cardiac catheterization in patients with out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) might improve mortality and result in more favorable neurological outcomes.

Mortality is high, between 16-43.5% , and neurological outcomes are generally poor amongst survivors. These poor outcomes are related to both the SRSE itself and as a result of the prolonged PICU stay. One study suggests remission in 6 out of 7 patients where it was used, but long-term clinical outcomes remained poor.
