Optimal mean arterial pressure in comatose survivors of out-of-hospital cardiac arrest: An analysis of area below blood pressure thresholds

In comatose survivors of OHCA with an initial shockable rhythm, higher ABT is associated with increased rates of severe neurological dysfunction when MAP thresholds <75 mmHg are used. The current findings support the hypothesis that higher MAP targets (≥75 mmHg) may be indicated in this patient population.
