lüll Clinical review: beyond immediate survival from resuscitation-long-term outcome considerations after cardiac arrest Arawwawala D; Brett SJCrit Care 2007[]; 11 (6): 235A substantial body of literature concerning resuscitation from cardiac arrest now exists. However, not surprisingly, the greater part concerns the cardiac arrest event itself and optimising survival and outcome at relatively proximal time points. The aim of this review is to present the evidence base for interventions and therapeutic strategies that might be offered to patients surviving the immediate aftermath of a cardiac arrest, excluding components of resuscitation itself that may lead to benefits in long-term survival. In addition, this paper reviews the data on long-term impact, physical and neuropsychological, on patients and their families, revealing a burden that is often underestimated and underappreciated. As greater numbers of patients survive cardiac arrest, outcome measures more sophisticated than simple survival are required.|Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation/*trends[MESH]|Heart Arrest/epidemiology/*mortality/*therapy[MESH]|Humans[MESH]|Survival Rate/trends[MESH]|Time[MESH]|Treatment Outcome[MESH] |
