Article Synopsis
- A study comparing immediate versus delayed coronary angiography in patients with out-of-hospital cardiac arrest showed no significant difference in overall mean costs between the two strategies during the initial hospital stay.
- Although immediate angiography resulted in higher procedural costs, expenses related to intensive care and ward stays were similar in both groups.
- The findings suggest that a delayed approach, allowing for neurological recovery before invasive procedures, may be a more cost-effective strategy.
