Abstract
Longer on-scene resuscitation was associated with decreased chance of 1-month survival among pediatric OHCA patients without ROSC. For patients aged <8 years, earlier departure from the scene, within 5 min, may increase the chances of 1-month survival. Conversely, for patients aged ≥8 years, continuing on-scene resuscitation for up to 10 min would be reasonable.
