ABSTRACT: Objectives
Extracorporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitation (ECPR) has been shown to improve neurologically favorable survival in patients with refractory out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) caused by shockable rhythms. Further refinement of patient selection is needed to focus this resource-intensive therapy on those patients likely to benefit. This study sought to create a selection model using machine learning (ML) tools for refractory cardiac arrest patients undergoing ECPR.Design
Retrospective cohort study.Setting
Cardiac ICU in a Quaternary Care Center.Patients
Adults 18-75 years old with refractory OHCA caused by a shockable rhythm.Methods
Three hundred seventy-six consecutive patients with refractory OHCA and a shockable presenting rhythm were
