Therapeutic hypothermia for nonventricular fibrillation/ventricular tachycardia cardiac arrest

Although efficacy of therapeutic hypothermia (TH) for cardiac arrest following ventricular tachycardia (VT)/ventricular fibrillation (VF) is a recommended therapy, the efficacy of TH for non-VF/VT cardiac arrest is still not well studied. We conducted a study to evaluate efficacy and outcomes of TH in non-VF/VT cardiac arrest patients in terms of survival and neurological outcome.
