Recently had been reflecting on the recents codes I have had. I previously worked in a rural town in America for the span of a few years, it felt I had approximately half of the people code achieve ROSC. Yes, a lot of them were likely brain dead but it felt great to be able to let the family say goodbye one last time with the patient 'alive' with some folks having some meaningful recovery.
Over the span of my last few months working in a busy city ER in the South, I can not recall the last code I was able to achieve ROSC on. Atleast the last 10 I was unable to get back and had to pronounce dead.
Its a pretty standard algorithm as everyone knows. Curious if there is some regional variance (due to transport times/hospital staffing/ems competence/etc) as in my experience I have had it. Could just be a fluke though.
How often are you guys able to achieve ROSC?
