Abstract: Background: In out of hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA), the prognostic influence of conversion to shockable rhythms during resuscitation for initially non‐shockable rhythms remains unknown. This study aimed to assess the relationship between initial and subsequent… read more here.

Abstract: BACKGROUND Defibrillation in out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) is increasingly performed by using an Automated External Defibrillator (AED). Therefore presence of a shockable rhythm is recurrently only documented by the AED. However, AED-information is rarely available… read more here.

DOI: 10.1136/emermed-2021-211417
Abstract: Background Emergency physicians can use a manual or an automated defibrillator to provide defibrillation of patients who had out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA). Performance of emergency physicians in identifying shockable rhythm with a manual defibrillator has… read more here.

DOI: 10.1371/journal.pone.0189442
Abstract: Objective Coronary angiography (CAG) for survivors of out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) enables early identification of coronary artery disease and revascularization, which might improve clinical outcome. However, little is known for the role of CAG in… read more here.
