Insights From the Ventricular Fibrillation Waveform Into the Mechanism of Survival Benefit From Bystander Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation

Insights From the Ventricular Fibrillation Waveform Into the Mechanism of Survival Benefit From Bystander Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation

Background The mechanism by which bystander cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) improves survival following out‐of‐hospital cardiac arrest is unclear. We hypothesized that ventricular fibrillation (VF) waveform measures, as surrogates of myocardial physiology, mediate the relationship between bystan...
