DOI: 10.1007/s00134-020-05992-w
Abstract: Purpose Cardiac arrest may occur unexpectedly in intensive care units (ICU). We hypothesize that certain patient characteristics and treatments are associated with survival and long-term functional outcome following in-ICU cardiac arrest. Methods Over a 12-month… read more here.

DOI: 10.1097/mej.0000000000000915
Abstract: Mobile phone technologies to alert citizen first responders to out-of-hospital cardiac arrests (OHCAs) were implemented in numerous countries. This systematic review and meta-analysis aim to investigate whether activating citizen first responders increases bystanders’ interventions and… read more here.
