| Left ventricular hypertrophy | 0.200 | 0.001 |
| Hypertension | 0.143 | 0.018 |
| Hyperlipidaemia | −0.024 | 0.379 |
| Odds ratios in case of parameters negatively affect ROSC | ||
| Parameters | OR | CI 95% |
| Left ventricular hypertrophy | 5.131 | 4.965–5.293 |
| Hypertension | 1.822 | 1.748–1.891 |
r value: correlation coefficient, p value: level of significance, OR: Odds ratio quantifying how strongly the presence of the comorbid factors are associated with the negative outcome of resuscitation, CI: 95% confidence interval. If the interval not contains 1 the finding is significant
