We tested the effects of nimodipine upon neurologic outcome in 31 cats
subjected to 14 minutes of cardiac arrest followed by resuscitation. With
the dose schedule used, nimodipine had no effect upon neurologic outcome or
upon the percentage of ischemic neurons in frontal, hippocampal, occipital,
or cerebellar brain sections. The electroencephalographic recovery pattern
did not correlate with neurologic or pathologic findings.
