Abstract
A significant decrease in circulating lymphocytes can occur after septic shock and severe trauma and is associated with a poor outcome. After cardiac arrest (CA), the return of spontaneous circulation is associated with a significant inflammatory response that can also mimic the same alterations, but lymphocyte count has not been studied in this setting.
