Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
In recent years, many exciting advancements have been made in the management of cardiac arrest.
Out-of-hospital cardiac arrest is still a leading cause of death (OHCA) despite the use of advanced emergency devices. Most adults could be saved from cardiac arrest with the early recognition of cardiac arrest, prompt effective shocks via defibrillation and a functional post-resuscitation care program.
The treatment of cardiac arrest is a real challenge for cardiologists, intensivists, and emergency physicians. Much progress has been made during the last years both in understanding the underlying mechanisms and in developing new treatments, but work must still be conducted. The more we study this topic, the more we improve patients’ chances of survival.
This Special Issue aims to highlight the current knowledge regarding cardiac arrest and underline possible current practices and future perspectives on cardiac arrest.
In this Special Issue, original articles and reviews are welcome. We look forward to receiving your contributions.
Dr. Christoph Sinning
Guest Editor
