McKenzie N, et al. - Researchers performed a comparison of survival outcomes of adults with out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) of medical aetiology directly transported to a percutaneous-coronary-intervention capable (PCI-capable) hospital (direct transport) with patients transferred to a PCI-capable hospital via another hospital without PCI services available (indirect transport) by emergency medical services (EMS). A survival advantage was noted for adults with OHCA of medical aetiology in association with direct transport to a PCI-capable hospital for post-resuscitation care. The finding seems to have implications for EMS transport protocols for patients with OHCA.
