Table 3.

Odds ratios of neurological outcomes according to the recognition timing of gasping based on the absence of gasping in ECPR patients

Unadjusted OR (95% CI) p value Adjusted OR (95%CI) p value
n = 212 n = 207a
Without gasping during resuscitation 1.00 (Ref.)  < .001 1.00 (Ref.)  < .001
With gasping either during EMS transport or on hospital arrival 3.93 (1.07–14.46) 0.040 4.97 (1.11–22.39) 0.037
With gasping both during EMS transport and on hospital arrival 12.15 (3.70–39.97)  < .001 27.44 (5.65–133.41)  < .001
