Application of Adult Prehospital Resuscitation Rules to Pediatric Out of Hospital Cardiac Arrest.
Prehospital termination of resuscitation (TOR) rules can be recommended for adults with out-of-hospital cardiac arrests (OHCAs). This study aimed to investigate whether adult basic life support (BLS) and advanced life support (ALS) TOR rules can predict neurologically unfavorable one-month outcome for pediatric OHCA patients. ⋯ The adult BLS and ALS TOR rules had a high PPV for predicting pediatric OHCA patients without a neurologically favorable survival at one month after onset.
