(5/31, Walsh) reports, "A simple tool administered at the bedside can accurately predict the likelihood of survival without serious neurologic sequelae after cardiac arrest in the hospital," according to a study published online in Archives of Internal Medicine. Investigators found that "patients whose scores on the prediction tool were below 10 had a 70.7% probability of surviving with favorable neurologic status, while those with scores at or above 28 had a probability of only 2.8%."
