Article Synopsis
- The study aimed to explore the outcomes of patients experiencing in-hospital cardiac arrest (IHCA) who received CPR with an automated external defibrillator (AED) in non-monitored areas, focusing on factors influencing return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC) and survival rates.
- In total, 109 patients were analyzed, revealing that CPR with AED since 2013 significantly improved ROSC rates (21.1% survival to discharge), while tracheal intubation was linked to higher ROSC but lower post-ROSC survival.
- The research concluded that factors affecting ROSC differ from those influencing survival after ROSC; for instance, dysrhythmia as the cause of cardiac arrest and ICU admission were notably associated with
