Out-of-Hospital Cardiac Arrest Complicated by Hyperthermia
The aims of this study were to establish epidemiology, clinical management and outcomes in cases of adult out-of-hospital cardiac arrest complicated by hyperthermia attended by the London Ambulance Service NHS Trust between January 2018 and December 2019. Where evidence is available in relation to this sub-set of cardiac arrest patients it is generally
