The study aims to determine if treating seizures with medications improves recovery in unconscious patients who have survived cardiac arrest.

The study uses several anti-seizure medications administered through a vein, including diazepam, midazolam, lorazepam, propofol, esketamine, lacosamide, levetiracetam, and sodium valproate. These medications are given in a step-by-step approach to stop the seizure activity that is detected by brain wave monitoring.

The research will compare patients who receive seizure treatment with those who do not receive treatment. The main focus is on how well patients recover their ability to function in daily life six months after their cardiac arrest. The study will also look at the cost-effectiveness of the treatment approach.
