Neurologic prognostication
status myoclonus, comatose
MULTIPLE ORGAN FAILURE, BRAIN DEATH, COMATOSE, REFRACTORY SHOCK
Active treatment continued until 72 h after TTM, except for patients with status myoclonus, brain death, or refractory shock with multiple organ failure. Patients who remained comatose despite cessation of sedation were evaluated by combining neurologic examination, EEG, somatosensory-evoked potential (SSEP), biomarkers (NSE) and brain CT. As previously described, EEGs were classified as highly malignant, malignant, or benign [
