- 主要终点
- The primary outcome measure will be functional recovery expressed as the score on the extended Glasgow Outcome Scale (eGOS) at six months after cardiac arrest. eGOS scores at six months are obtained by a standardized telephone interview conducted by an independent investigator, who is masked to treatment allocation and EEG pattern.

简要总结
To determine if seizure suppression by stepwise anti-seizure treatment improves outcome of comatose patients after cardiac arrest with ESE, as compared with no anti-seizure treatment.
