Prehospital Transcutaneous Cardiac Pacing in the United States: Treatment Epidemiology, Predictors of Treatment Failure, and Associated Outcomes
Patients who undergo prehospital TCP are at high risk of mortality. Progression to cardiac arrest is common and associated with factors including increased weight, a non-bradycardic initial heart rate and pre-TCP hypoxia.
