Brief Summary:
In sudden cardiac arrest patients with return of spontaneous circulation, brain damage is one of the main determinants of short-term mortality and poor prognosis (CPC 3-5). It is important to properly select group of patients in whom treatment is futile. According to current guidelines, multimodal approach is recommended. Optic nerve sheath diameter measured by ultrasound is non-invasive, fast, low-cost and readily available bed-side method, but evidence for its use as neuroprognostication modality is limited to only few small studies. The aim of this study is to evaluate validity of ONSD as neuroprognostication method at larger cohort of patients, compare it with other established methods and compare ultrasound and CT measurement of ONSD.
