AbstractAfter cardiac arrest, mortality in the postresuscitation period is still up to 70%. Therefore, optimal intensive care of these patients is of great importance. This article summarizes current knowledge and recommendations for postresuscitation care. Particular focus is given to mild therapeutic hypothermia. This is currently the only therapeutic concept for which randomized clinical trials have shown improved survival and neurological outcome after cardiac arrest.
