Dr. Khera’s study—produced with Dr. Saket Girotra, Assistant Professor of Cardiovascular Medicine, and others—finds significant variation in the amount of time before epinephrine is delivered to patients suffering cardiac arrest and, more important, a correlation between survival rate and that duration. After examining more than 100,000 cases, their observational study finds that a faster delivery of adrenaline could mean as much as a 20 percent increase in survival rate. This creates a potential opportunity for training providers and developing better team mechanics in order to be prepared for the next cardiac event. Congratulations on the publication and the press!
