Popis: Objective: Despite recent advances in medical support and interventions, only 5% to 10% of patients with out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) survive to discharge. In this study, factors related to neurologically favorable survival in patients with OHCA were analyzed. Methods: A total of 129 patients who were admitted to hospital with OHCA were retrospectively enrolled. Results: Sustained return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC) (ROSC lasting >20 min) was achieved in 29 (22.4%) patients. Percentage of cardiac arrests with ischemic etiology was significantly higher in successful ROSC group (p
