摘要

Dear Editor, Anoxic brain injury (ABI) is a devastating event caused by cardiac arrest, chemical exposure, or trauma.Despite recent advances in medical diagnostic techniques and treatments, the survival rate after ABI is still very low.Previous studies have reported that 52.6％-64.0％ of people who received cardiopulmonary resuscitation after non-traumatic cardiac arrest die, and 9.0％-18.6％ remain in a permanent vegetative state within 28 days of treatment [1, 2].Survivors suffer from a wide range of neurologicalsequelae, such as cognitive impairment, abnormal movement, visual dysfunction, ataxia, and behavioral changes,making it difficult for physicians to develop appropriate rehabilitative strategies [2, 3].
