Figures & data

Table 1. Baseline demographic, pre-hospital characteristics and post resuscitation care treatment in the four comorbidity groups.

Figure 1. Kaplan–Meier plot of survival at end of study in comorbidity groups. Differences were tested with log-rank tests. mCI: modified comorbidity index.

Figure 2. Mortality at temperatures 33 °C and 36 °C in the four comorbidity groups. Differences were tested with log-rank test. There was no significant interaction between mortality and target temperature in multiple Cox regression (p = 0.61).
