Aims of The Study
To analyze the prognosis of the patients who survived Out of Hospital Cardiac Arrest (OHCA) and admitted into ICCU and identify the predictor variables of mortality.

3. Method & Results
In a retrospective cohort study we followed patients hospitalized after Out of Hospital Cardiac Arrest to our ICCU for a period of 5 years ( )
A Total of 108 patients were our study population
We divided patients to 2 groups. Those who die within hospitalization and those who discharged.

4. Die within Hospitalization
Results
In the study included 108 patients.
44 patients died (41%) and 64 pts discharged (59%)
Patients who died were Older, Obese, Hypertensive and Diabetic compared with those who survived.

5. Die within Hospitalization
Results
Asystole, as the Initial presented arrhythmia is Poor Prognostic Factor
Significant Anoxic Brain Injury was the Worst prognostic factor.
The Following Treatments had NO Influence on Mortality:
Primary PCI
Therapeutic Hypothermia

6. Conclusions Drkorenofir@gmail.com
Mortality of patients who survived OHCA and were admitted to ICCU remains High
Being Post Anoxic neurological impairment its main cause
