VF/VT: ventricular fibrillation/ventricular tachycardia; PEA: pulseless electric activity; ALS: advanced life support; ROSC: return of spontaneous circulation; SAPS: simplified acute physiology score; MI: myocardial infarction. Data are mean ± SD, medians with interquartile range, or number with percentages.
