CPR duration 0.95 (0.94-0.96) < 0.001 0.95 (0.93-0.96) < 0.001
History of cardiac disease (No) 0.49 (0.38-0.64) < 0.001 0.54 (0.40 – 0.72) < 0.001
Witnessed (No) 1.46 (1.12-1.90) 0.005 - -

CI: confidence interval; CPR: cardiopulmonary resuscitation; ETI: endotracheal intubation; OR: Odds ratio; AOR: Adjusted Odds ratio (adjusted for patients’ age, gender, arrest location, history of cardiac disease, time of arrest, CPR duration, response time, witnessed, bystander CPR and endotracheal intubation and shockable rhythm).
