Association between QRS characteristics in pulseless electrical activity and survival outcome in cardiac arrest patients: A systematic review and meta-analysis

Objective: Recent studies have shown inconsistent results regarding the association between QRS characteristics and survival outcomes in patients with cardiac arrest and pulseless electrical activity (PEA) rhythms. This meta-analysis aimed to identify the usefulness of QRS width and frequency as prognostic tools for outcomes in patients with cardiac arrest and PEA rhythm.
