Journal of Palliative Medicine, 10/20/09
Miller W et al. – In this urban setting, approximately three of four OOHCA patients who are initially resuscitated do not survive to hospital discharge. This short in–hospital course post–CPR is often marked by pain and ends with the withdrawal of life support. This information may be an important component of advance planning discussions and may assist patients as they weigh the pros and cons associated with resuscitation preferences.
