Abstract
Cardiac arrest afflicts more than 300,000 persons annually in North America alone. Improving outcomes after cardiac arrest requires an integrated and multidisciplinary approach to postresuscitation intensive care and subsequent recovery. This article reviews components of injury within the post-cardiac arrest syndrome, the salient features of brain-oriented intensive care, best practices in neurologic prognostication, and a rational approach to emergency revascularization and hemodynamic support.
