“…[16] The duration of CPR is a good predictor of outcome as demonstrated by us and numerous others. [17][18][19] In our study, CPR duration of 30 minutes was taken as a cut off and it was found that out of 59% patients with OHCA, who received CPR for a duration of less than or equal to 30 minutes, ROSC was achieved in 32.5% of them whereas not a single patient could be revived in the remaining 32.5% of patients, who received CPR for a duration of more than 30 minutes. This shows that the CPR duration of more than 30 minutes in OHCA patients is associated with very poor outcome.…”

“…Sites transitioned from one phase to another based on pre‐specified protocol criteria. This design was chosen to reduce a possible Hawthorne effect and other biases . For analysis of the main trial, the Group Sequential Double Triangular Test was used.…”

“…Once again, these observation studies are prone to bias, a fact underlined by a reanalysis of a Nor wegian prospective study [21]. We await publication of the results of studies on two mechanical CPR devices: the loaddistrib uting band [22] and the LUCAS [23,24]. I anticipate that results from all of these trials will be available to inform the dis cussion leading into the 2015 internation al consensus on CPR science conference.…”
