The time-dependent yield of invasive vs. standard resuscitation strategies: A secondary analysis of the Prague out-of-hospital cardiac arrest study
Bibliographic record
Abstract
BACKGROUND: It is unclear how invasive resuscitative protocols may impact the time-dependent prognosis of out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) resuscitations, or the relationship between intra-arrest transport and outcomes. METHODS: We performed a secondary analysis of the Prague OHCA Study, which randomized refractory OHCAs to "invasive" (intra-arrest transport for possible ECPR initiation) vs. "standard" resuscitation strategies (predominantly performed on-scene). Between groups, we compared outcomes of the initial resuscitation and 180- and 30-day favourable neurological outcomes (CPC 1-2), and within categories based on resuscitation duration (collapse-to-ROSC/ECPR interval). We plotted the dynamic probability of favourable outcomes with increasing durations of unsuccessful resuscitation. RESULTS: Among invasive and standard groups, respectively: 34/124 (27%) vs. 58/132 (44%) had sustained ROSC (difference -17%, 95%CI -5.0, -28); 38/124 (31%) vs. 24/132 (18%) had 30-day favourable neurological outcomes (difference 12%; 95%CI 2.0, 23); and 39/124 (31%) vs. 29/132 (22%) had 180-day favourable neurological outcomes (difference 9.5%; 95%CI -1.3, 20). For favourable outcome cases: standard group resuscitation durations were right-skewed within the first 60 min; for the invasive group the distribution was bimodal, extending to 77 min. For invasive- and standard-treated cases, the probability of favourable outcomes among those in refractory arrest at 30 min was 28% and 7.6%, respectively; declining to 0% at 77 and 60 min. CONCLUSION: In comparison to standard resuscitation, invasive strategy cases had fewer achieve sustained ROSC, however improved overall 30-day favourable neurological outcomes. While standard resuscitation yield was limited to < 60 min, invasive protocols offer a second extended window of potential successful resuscitation.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
