Pediatric cardiac arrest is not a single problem. Although most episodes of pediatric cardiac arrest occur as complications and progressions of respiratory failure and shock, sudden cardiac arrest may result from sudden arrhythmias. With better understanding of the epidemiology of pediatric cardiac arrest, clinicians can better tailor therapy to optimize outcome.
小儿心脏骤停并非单一问题。尽管大多数小儿心脏骤停事件是作为呼吸衰竭和休克的并发症及进展而发生的,但心脏骤停也可能由突发心律失常导致。随着对小儿心脏骤停流行病学的更好理解,临床医生可以更好地调整治疗方案以优化治疗结果。
