title: [Neuropsychic disorders after cardiac arrest].
abstract: This study reports on a group of eight patients having experienced a cardiac arrest while in the hospital. After a quick recovery from the accident they are screened for neuropsychic disorders during and up to six months after their hospitalization. These symptoms are aspecific and are similar to those encountered after any hospitalization in an intensive care unit. Only patients with coronary artery disease exposed to the risk of recurrence, remain with a feeling of insecurity partially supported by the family.
