Staudacher II, et al. - The retrospective study was designed to ascertain the impact of an early invasive strategy in patients presenting with an out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) and no obvious extracardiac cause. As per findings, compared to a non-early invasive strategy, early coronary angiography (<3 hours) was not associated with reduced 30-day mortality in patients hospitalized after OHCA. This was irrespective of the presence of ST segment elevation or cardiogenic shock at presentation.
