Introduction

Welcome to our next episode! In this episode, we again delve into the world of neuroprognostication with none other than Dr. Julie Kromm. Dr Kromm is a neurointensivist, who brings a wealth of expertise to the table and was one of the authors on the Canadian Position Statement for Neuro Prognostication after cardiac arrest.

Neuroprognostication is a field that combines the precision of neurology with the nuances of predicting outcomes in patients with severe neurological injury after cardiac arrest. Join us as Dr. Kromm guides us through looking behind the fog, using the physical examination appropriately and what to make of special testing.
