Can serial focussed echocardiographic evaluation in life support (FEEL) predict resuscitation outcome or termination of resuscitation (TOR)? A pilot study

Abstract Aim of the study This study aimed to evaluate the correlation between serial echocardiography findings and return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC) in patients with out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) and to examine whether echocardiographic cardiac standstill duration can be used to predict ROSC. Methods This was a prospective observational study of non-consecutive non-trauma adult patients with OHCA. Echocardiography was performed every 2 min during a pulse check for
