Shock in patients resuscitated after out of hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) is associated with an increased risk of mortality. We sought to determine the associations between lactate level, mean arterial pressure (MAP), and vasopressor/inotrope doses with mortality.
Motor vehicle crashes (MVCs) are a leading cause of death and injury in the United States. 1 Improvements to road infrastructure, vehicle design, and traffic safety legislation have led to a decrease in crash mortality from 15.9 per 100 000 person-years in 1995 to 10.9 per 100 000 person-years in 2015. 2 The implementation of organized trauma ...
