Search for Prognostic Factors Associated With Better Survival in Refractory Cardiac Arrest

• Conditions: Cardiac Arrest (CA); ExtraCorporeal Life Support (ECLS)

• Registration Number: NCT03261232
• Lead Sponsor: Centre Hospitalier Universitaire Dijon

Brief Summary

Through this retrospective observational study (over 4 years; period analysed: 1st January 2011 to 31st December 2014), we looked for prognostic factors associated with better survival in refractory cardiac arrest by:

* assessing the overall survival rate

* evaluating the frequency of intra et extra-hospital events and by comparing these with the survival rate

* studying no flow, low flow, rhythm at initial management, troponinemia, lactatemia and blood pH in the different groups.
