Abstract
In an effort to improve neurologically normal survival of victims of cardiac arrest, a new out-of-hospital protocol was implemented by the emergency medical system medical directors in 2 south-central rural Wisconsin counties. The project was undertaken because the existing guidelines for care of such patients, despite their international scope and periodic updates, had not substantially improved survival rates for such patients during nearly 4 decades.
