AbstractThis study showed that conventional CPR outcomes in Cerebral Performance Category were better than those compression-onlybystander CPR that were achieved at 1 month post resuscitation. There was no difference in those with an initial shockable rhythm, requiring CPR for 20 minutes before hospital arrival, public defibrillation, advanced airway care or epinephrine administration. However, survival rates in paediatric CPR is low. Ways in which to improve the outcomes are suggested which included bystander CPR, teaching and training of dispatchers and additional technologies.Copyright © 2022. Published by Elsevier B.V.
