متن کاملResuscitation Science Time in Recurrent Ventricular Fibrillation and Survival After Out-of-Hospital Cardiac Arrest
Background—Current resuscitation guidelines (2005 guidelines [G2005]) accelerate ventricular fibrillation (VF) recurrence. We investigated whether patients resuscitated under G2005 spend more time in VF and have better survival rates than patients treated under the 2000 guidelines (G2000). Methods and Results—We analyzed continuous ECG recordings of out-of-hospital cardiac arrests prospectively...
