Interventions

  • Burst Suppression EEG Target Intravenous Anesthesia — DRUG
    The objective of the burst suppression EEG target is to stop seizures by titrating the anesthetic infusion to suppress most of the EEG background (\>50% suppressed/attenuated). After this 24-hour period, this target would be continued for 24 hours. The anesthetic will then be tapered under EEG monitoring. In case of PCARSE recurrence, the intervention with the same target will be re-initiated for another cycle of 24 hours.
  • Seizure Suppression EEG Target Intravenous Anesthesia — DRUG
    is to stop seizures by titrating the anesthetic infusion without suppressing most of the EEG background. This target would be continued for 24 hours. After this 24-hours period, this target would be continued for 24 hours. The anesthetic will then be tapered under EEG monitoring. In case of PCARSE recurrence, the intervention with the same target will be re-initiated for another cycle of 24 hours.

Study Details

RESTORE is a randomized clinical trial investigating the safety and feasibility of using EEG treatment targets (burst suppression vs. seizure suppression) for post-cardiac arrest refractory status epilepticus treatment.

Arms

  • Other: Burst Suppression EEG Target
    Anesthetic will be titrated to achieve burst suppression on continuous EEG (50-99% attenuation/suppression) for 24 hours.
  • Other: Seizure Suppression EEG Target
    Anesthetic will be titrated to achieve seizure suppression on continuous EEG for 24 hours.
