N2 - Neurological markers are used to predict outcomes in patients resuscitated after cardiac arrest, and are crucial in informing treatment decisions in comatose patients. A multicenter study reports that therapeutic hypothermia in cardiac arrest alters the reliability of several recommended prognostic parameters, and the authors highlight challenges to optimization of prognostic paradigms.
