    Abstract:
    A global overview of the latest results (1991-1993) from the Belgian Cardio-Pulmonary-Cerebral-Resuscitation Study Group is presented in accordance with the Utstein style recommendations and compared with similar reports. Simple clinical research data requested in a standardized document generate better quality assurance because of the additional attention that accompanies scientific investigations. We hope that our results will stimulate more institutions to scrutinize their cardiopulmonary resuscitation efforts using similar endpoints and denominators. Summaries of these data enable clinicians to challenge conventional but untested therapeutic wisdom, and help to formulate rewarding hypotheses and algorithms with regard to fate and to process factors surrounding the incidence and treatment of cardiac arrests.
