Popis: | In Response: We appreciate the commentary by Dr Voicu et al about our recent manuscript1 proposing a simple scoring system to assess the risk of circulatory etiology death after resuscitation from cardiac arrest. Identification of patients likely to die from circulatory etiology death is important, not only to identify those who may benefit from mechanical circulatory support, but also to select for early angiography and revascularization and to choose temperature targets, experimental neuroprotective measures, or other individualized treatments. Triage of resuscitated patients should be based on the competing risks of circulatory and neurological etiology death, maximizing the effectiveness of various treatments by offering them to the … |
