Comment on Utsumi et al. Differences in Pathophysiology and Treatment Efficacy Based on Heterogeneous Out-of-Hospital Cardiac Arrest. <i>Medicina</i> 2024, <i>60</i>, 510

Abstract

We read with great interest the review article on pathophysiology and treatment based on different out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) patients. We wish to present our comments on the threshold values for neuron-specific enolase (NSE) based on the initial rhythm and the misquoting of a few references in that article.

Keywords

• neuron-specific enolase
• shockable rhythm
• non-shockable rhythm
• out-of-hospital cardiac arrest
