==Global ischemia==
===General===
*Often due to ''cardiac arrest''.
===Microscopic===
Features:
*Hippocampal ischemic changes:
**Loss of neurons in CA1, CA3 and CA4 +/- "cavitation".
***Neuronal loss: No blue (nuclei) where there should be some.
***Cavitation: bubbles/clear spaces where there should be none.
**CA2 neurons preserved.
