摘要: Background— Population-based data for pediatric cardiac arrest are scant and largely from urban areas. The Resuscitation Outcomes Consortium (ROC) Epistry–Cardiac Arrest is a population-based emergency medical services registry of out-of-hospital nontraumatic (OHCA). This study examined age-stratified incidence outcomes OHCA. We hypothesized that survival to hospital discharge less frequent OHCA than adult Methods Results— prospective cohort in 11 US Canadian ROC sites included persons P =0.03). Unadjusted odds ratio compared with adults was 0.71 (95% confidence interval, 0.37 1.39) infants, 2.11 1.21 3.66) children, 2.04 1.24 3.38) adolescents. Conclusions— demonstrates the infants approaches observed but lower among children Survival more common adolescents or adults.
