Characterization of cerebral blood flow during open cardiac massage in swine: Effect of volume status

Abstract

Introduction: Patients in cardiac arrest treated with resuscitative thoracotomy and open cardiac massage (OCM) have high rates of mortality with poor neurological outcomes. The aim of this study is to quantitate cerebral perfusion during OCM using computed tomography perfusion (CTP) imaging in a swine model of normo- and hypovolemia.
