Clinical trials: Cardiac Tamponade
Cardiac Arrest, Out of Hospital Cardiac Arrest
Compression Only-CPR Versus Standard-CPR
Out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) is one of the leading causes of mortality in the industrialized world. Bystander CPR before arrival of the Emergency Medical Service (EMS) is a positive predictor of survival.
