Feasibility and beneficial effects of an early goal directed therapy after cardiac arrest: evaluation by conductance method

Abstract Although beneficial effects of an early goal directed therapy (EGDT) after cardiac arrest and successful return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC) have been described, clinical implementation in this period seems rather difficult. The aim of the present study was to investigate the feasibili...
