Outcome and risk factors in children after traumatic cardiac arrest and successful resuscitation

摘要

Introduction: Prospective collected data of the TraumaRegister DGU (R) were analyzed to derive survival rates and predictors for non-survival in the children who had suffered traumatic cardiorespiratory arrest. Different time points of resuscitation efforts (only preclinical, in the emergency room (ER) or preclinical + ER) were analyzed in terms of mortality and neurological outcome.
