A number of independent factors are associated with improved outcomes including if the initial presenting cardiac rhythm was either ventricular fibrillation or ventricular tachycardia (adjusted odds ratio [OR] 8.75, 95% confidence interval [CI] 5.15\u201314.89) (<jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic> &lt;\u20090.0001) relative to those who were found in a non\u2010shockable rhythm. Another factor was age group (overall <jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic> &lt;\u20090.001). Those aged 85+ years had a reduced overall survival rate (2.9%), which was lower than those &lt;16\u2009years of age (OR 0.37, 95% CI 0.07\u20131.94; adjusted OR 0.38, CI 0.03\u20131.00) (<jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic> &lt;\u20090.001).
