Letter to the Editor Letter to editor: A pilot study examining the role of regional cerebral oxygen saturation monitoring as a marker of return of spontaneous circulation in shockable (VF/VT) and non-shockable (PEA/asystole) cause of cardiac arrest Sir, With great interest, I read the recent published article by Ahn et al.1 These authors had reported that regional cerebral oxygen saturation (rSO2 ) monitoring during cardiac arrest (CA) was able to provide data regarding the quality of resuscitation as well as the timing of return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC). Although no definite threshold value of rSO2 has been yet agreed upon, still they concluded that value of mean rSO2
