Multicenter StudyRhythms and outcomes of adult in-hospital cardiac arrest.
To determine the relationship of electrocardiographic rhythm during cardiac arrest with survival outcomes. ⋯ Survival to hospital discharge was substantially more likely when the first documented rhythm was shockable rather than nonshockable, and slightly more likely after PEA than asystole. Survival to hospital discharge was less likely following PEA/asystole with subsequent VT/VF compared to PEA/asystole without subsequent VT/VF.
