Outcome 24 months after OHCA Of 48 eligible children (one patient died 6 months post-OHCA), 27 children (56%) visited the outpatient clinic and 27 (56%) underwent neuropsychological assessment. One child who visited the outpatient clinic could not be tested due to severe neurological deficits post-OHCA, fig.1. Functional outcomes Of these 48 children, 26/32 school-aged children (81%) went back to school. Due to cognitive problems related to OHCA, 2 children at regular primary school changed to a different school with smaller groups and 2 secondary school children changed to a lower education level. Neurological exam revealed hemiparesis in 4 children, tetraparesis in 1 child and 1 child had ataxia (15%) (GMFCS varying from I-V (27) ) (Table 1). Median PCPC score was 2 [IQR 1-3.5]; 35 children (73%) had good outcome. 7
