A specialized, interdisciplinary, and longitudinal neuroprognostication program for disorders of consciousness after cardiac arrest was associated with more favorable provider attitudes. Surveys of 545 neurologists and critical care providers showed that those exposed to the program, compared to historical and contemporary controls, more often rated neuroprognostication as useful (94% vs 69% and 68%) and comprehensive (94% vs 76% and 66%), and 63% rated the program as much better than the conventional model. The findings suggest that such a program may improve the practice of neuroprognostication.
