Abstract
While cardiac surgery had some effects on memory, overall neurocognitive function was well preserved and not different between DHCA and non-DHCA patients. Time under DHCA up to 40 minutes was also found to be safe neurocognitively. This study provides strong evidence that straight DHCA effectively preserves neurocognitive function.
