Implementation of Pit Crew Approach and Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation Metrics for Out-of-Hospital Cardiac Arrest Improves Patient Survival and Neurological Outcome.

INTRODUCTION Survival from out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) varies by community and emergency medical services (EMS) system. We hypothesized that the adoption of multiple best practices to focus EMS crews on high-quality, minimally interrupted cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) would improve survival of OHCA patients in Salt Lake City. METHODS AND RESULTS In September 2011, Salt Lake Ci...

Factors Associated with Survival Rate after Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation

Introduction: Cardiovascular disease is considered as the most important cause of mortality among men and women throughout the world. This condition causes sudden cardiac arrest in more than half of the cases. To reduce mortality due to this disease, cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) and the determinants of its success are the focus of researchers. Objective: The aim of this study was to det...
