pubmed:abstractText |
Cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) is a frequently performed medical intervention in hospitalized patients who die. Despite the widespread use of do-not-resuscitate (DNR) orders during the last decade, the outcome following CPR appears not to have improved. The key to an improved outcome may be better patient selection. The objective of this study was to determine the hospital survival rate following CPR in the era of DNR orders, and to identify risk factors predictive of hospital survival at a university-affiliated teaching hospital.
