Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
In recent years, advancements in emergency medicine and cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) have significantly improved survival rates and neurological outcomes in critically ill patients. However, variability in outcomes persists across different countries and systems of care, highlighting the need for continuous optimization in clinical practice, training, and post-resuscitation care.
This Special Issue will bring together high-quality research and expert perspectives focused on enhancing outcomes in emergency and resuscitative medicine. We welcome original research articles, systematic reviews that address innovations in CPR techniques, prehospital and in-hospital emergency care, resuscitation training programs, outcome prediction models based on large national registries, ethical considerations, and health system approaches for improving survival and recovery.
The topics of interest for publication include, but are not limited to, the following:
- Advanced life support techniques;
- Innovations in CPR and post-resuscitation care;
- Prehospital emergency response systems;
- Outcome predictors and decision-making algorithms.
