ENA Promotes AAN Guideline on Comatose Survivors |
|
In November, the ENA Board of Directors approved the dissemination of a new guideline developed by the American Academy of Neurology (AAN). Certain tests can predict with great accuracy whether a person in a coma after CPR (cardiopulmonary resuscitation) will have a poor outcome, according to AAN. The full guideline along with a clinician summary and patient version can be found at www.aan.com/professionals/practice/guideline/index.cfm.
