Abstract
In Reply.— Doctor Hertle and associates raise an important point regarding the incidence of retinal hemorrhages after cardiopulmonary resuscitation. It seems likely that the true incidence of retinal hemorrhages may be higher than we reported, because our method of detection is less sensitive than indirect ophthalmoscopy. However, there is a good reason for using direct ophthalmoscopy, because this is the method by which most clinicians would detect retinal hemorrhage. The purpose of our paper was to demonstrate that these hemorrhages can occur following cardiopulmonary resuscitation and are not necessarily due to preceding trauma.
