Time of on-scene resuscitation in out of-hospital cardiac arrest patients transported without return of spontaneous circulation
Resuscitation Apr 02, 2019
de Graaf C, et al. - In patients transported with ongoing cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) in the Netherlands, researchers determined the relationship between the time of resuscitation on scene (‘time on scene’) and survival by analyzing data on out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) patients (>18 years) without return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC) on scene where resuscitation was started between January 1, 2012 and December 31, 2016 in the Amsterdam Resuscitation Study (ARREST) database. Resuscitation was started in 5,871 OHCA patients; ROSC was not achieved in 2,437 of these on scene. Outcomes revealed a significant decrease in survival rate when time on scene is higher in OHCA patients transported with ongoing CPR.
