Outcome of Cardiac Arrest Survivors

Conditions: Cardiac Arrest Survivors

Sex: All
Ages: 18 Years – N/A
Healthy volunteers: No
Enrollment: 601
Sponsor: Assistance Publique - Hôpitaux de Paris

Location: INSERM U970 Centre de Recherche Cardiovasculaire de Paris Equipe 4, Epidémiologie Cardiovasculaire et Mort Subite Paris

Summary

Early prognosis of cardiac arrest - nearly 40000 new cases per year in France - has been extensively studied, highlighting a poor outcome (less than 8% at hospital discharge). However, little is known on mid and long-term prognostic factors and how these patients do survive from the event. Using a regional cohort, the aim of the study is to describe long-term survival rate of cardiac arrest survivors, and to assess the influence of treatment strategies on survival and functional outcome.
