Spinal cord ischemia following pediatric cardiac arrest: An unexplored complication of hypoxic ischemic injury

HISCI was identified in 11% of pediatric cardiac arrest patients who underwent post-arrest spinal MRI for clinical indications. Recognition of HISCI has potential implications for neuroprognostication, rehabilitation planning, and determination of brain death by neurologic criteria. Larger prospective studies are needed to define the incidence, risk factors, and outcomes of HISCI following pediatric cardiac arrest.

Abstract

HISCI was identified in 11% of pediatric cardiac arrest patients who underwent post-arrest spinal MRI for clinical indications. Recognition of HISCI has potential implications for neuroprognostication, rehabilitation planning, and determination of brain death by neurologic criteria. Larger prospective studies are needed to define the incidence, risk factors, and outcomes of HISCI following pediatric cardiac arrest.
