Prognostic value of serum phosphate level in elderly post-cardiac arrest patients
Abstract:Prognosticating the neurological outcomes of cardiac arrest is important. A recent study has shown that serum phosphate (SP) may be a prognostic indicator for poor neurological outcomes in cardiac arrest patients. Due to advancements in medicine, more elderly patients survive cardiac arrest than ever before, and prognostication of the markers in this population has not been studied previously. We aimed to confirm the hypothesis that a higher SP level predicts a poor neurological outcome of cardiac arrest, even… Show more
