SCCM Resource Library-Functional and Quantitative Brain Biomarkers to Improve Outcome After Cardiac Arrest

Functional and Quantitative Brain Biomarkers to Improve Outcome After Cardiac Arrest

Video Transcription

Video Summary

In this video, Professor Xiaofeng Jia discusses the need for functional and quantitative brain biomarkers to improve outcomes after cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR). Cardiac arrest affects many people each year, with survival rates and neurological outcomes remaining low. The monitoring of brain injury after CPR is complicated, as comatose survivors are often on sedatives and paralytics. The use of therapeutic hypothermia as a treatment further complicates brain monitoring. Professor Jia's research focuses on developing real-time and easy-to-use markers to quantify brain injury and monitor recovery. He discusses the use of quantitative EEG (QEEG) and quantitative SSEP (somatosensory evoked potential) as potential markers for predicting outcomes and monitoring recovery after CPR. He also introduces the use of quantitative cerebral blood flow monitoring using laser speckle imaging. Overall, the goal is to improve survival and neurological outcomes after CPR through the use of these monitoring techniques.
