Abstract

These European Resuscitation Council Guidelines 2025 on epidemiology of resuscitation provides key information about incidence, patients' characteristics, system organisation and outcomes for both out-of-hospital and in-hospital cardiac arrest in Europe and beyond. Information regarding patients' post survival experience and causes of cardiac arrest, including genetic factors, are also reported. Recommendations are provided to support the development of cardiac arrest registries, and improve out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) follow-up with an emphasis on quality of life, and perform autopsy including genetic analysis in young individuals.
