Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Determination of the feasibility of a sedation with inhalated sevoflurane in cardiac arrest resuscitated patients

    The feasibility is evaluated by the number of side effects due to treatment until discharge from hospital.

    at day 1

Secondary Outcomes (4)

  • Determination of neurological prognostic of patients at ICU and hospital discharge

    at day 1

  • Determination of systemic complications and organ failures during hospitalisation

    at day 1

  • Evaluation of systemic inflammation and evolution with cytokines

    at day 1

  • Evaluation of markers specific of brain ischemia (S100 protein and neuron-specific enolase)

    at day 1

Study Arms (1)
