The capacity of neurological pupil index to predict the absence of somatosensory evoked potentials after cardiac arrest – An observational study

Background: In neurologic prognostication of comatose survivors from cardiac arrest, two independent predictors of poor outcome are the loss of the Pupillary light reflex (PLR) and the loss of the N20 response from Somatosensory Evoked potentials (SSEP). The PLR can be quantitatively assessed by pup...
