Unfortunately, many arrest end with a poor outcome.
However, sometimes we get them back! The post

and may require many actions on your part to aid in
a full recovery for the patient. This
presentation will discuss the management of the
post-arrest patient and highlight best practices and
practices that should be avoided. |
