Outcome and predictors of cardiopulmonary resuscitation among patients admitted in Medical Intensive Care Unit in North India.
Outcome and predictors of survival after cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) in Intensive Care Units (ICUs) have been extensively studied in western world, but data from developing countries is sparse. ⋯ The rate of survival to hospital discharge after in-MICU CPRs is extremely poor.
