Evaluation of Survival Rates and Associated Factors After Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation

Aim: The aim of this study was to determine survival rates in patients who underwent cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) and to evaluate related demographic characteristics, clinical findings, and laboratory results. Materials and Methods:Data from 620 patients who were transported by ambulance to the emergency department while receiving CPR were retrospectively analysed.Demographic characteristics, clinical findings, laboratory values, and time variables were recorded.Factors associated with survival were evaluated using the chi-square test, independent samples t-test, correlation analysis, and logistic regression analysis.Results: The median age of the 620 patients included in the study was 67 years (IQR: 54-79), and 64.52% (n=400) were male.95.32% (n=591) of the calls received by the emergency call centre originated from the region.98.55% of patients (n=611) lived in urban areas.The one-month survival rate after CPR was found to be 12.42%.Successful resuscitation was achieved in 7.90% of these patients (n=49).In multivariate logistic regression analysis, pH ≤6.817 (OR: 37.39, 95% CI: 14.48-96.52,p
