NCT02585050

Brief Summary

Debates about the official and legal implementation of Do not attempt resuscitation (DNAR) orders are ongoing. The aim of this study was to determinate factors that influence neurological outcomes at discharge and the ratio of living patients discharged from the hospital due to DNAR prohibition.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Examine survival rate from data obtained by retrospective chart review of patients who have not DNAR order and performed CPR due to cardiac arrest in the period 2010-2012

    Data obtained by retrospective chart review will data including etiology, preexisting conditions, initial rhythm, end of event (any return of spontaneous circulation or not) live or death at discharged from hospital.

    Two years

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • Examine the influence on neurological outcomes at discharge of DNAR order prohibition from data obtained by retrospective chart review.

    two years

Study Arms (1)

patients alive discharged from hospital

patients alive discharged from hospital following CPR
