Survival curves. The solid line represents the actual survival curve for the cohort, the lower broken line represents the estimated survival assuming withdrawal of life-sustaining treatment at 24 hours in patients with an unfavorable electroencephalography (EEG) pattern at 24 hours after cardiac arrest, and the upper broken line the estimated survival assuming withdrawal of life-sustaining treatment at 72 hours in patients with an unfavorable EEG pattern at 24 hours after cardiac arrest. These curves indicate a decrease in survival in the first 2 weeks, but no increased mortality in the long term
