First seen Apr 18, 2026 · Last updated May 20, 2026 · Updated 7 times
Summary
This study looked at whether getting a heart artery X-ray within 2 hours of a cardiac arrest outside the hospital helps more people survive 30 days compared to waiting 3 days. Over 1,000 adults who had a witnessed cardiac arrest and regained a pulse were randomly assigned to one of the two timing strategies. The goal was to find the best approach for improving survival and brain function.
