Why the study?
Do predictors of total and cardiac mortality differ between male and female survivors of out-of-hospital cardiac arrest?
Do predictors of total and cardiac mortality differ between male and female survivors of out-of-hospital cardiac arrest?
Female survivors of out-of-hospital cardiac arrest have different underlying pathology and predictors of mortality compared to men, with coronary artery disease being the primary predictor in women and impaired LVEF in men.
