Abstract:Background
Cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) following sudden cardiac death is associated with neurological injury but the pathophysiology of this injury remains poorly understood. In this study we investigated the effects of post‐cardiac arrest CPR on neurological outcomes and hypothesized that injury would be associated with neuroinflammation and central nervous system mitochondrial injury.
Method
C57BL/6 adult mice underwent either asystolic cardiac arrest (CA) (N=19) followed by CPR or sham operation (SH… Show more
