The primary outcome was similar by age of 65 years, diabetes, type of first rhythm, use of TTM. | The primary outcome was similar by age of 65 years, diabetes, type of first rhythm, use of TTM. While the authors did not note any large differences in the primary outcome by these subgroups, the WJC editors note that the point estimate for the primary estimate was closer to "null" than "harm" with immediate angiography among those with confirmed MI as OHCA (with very wide CIs given small numbers in this group), among men, and ROSC ≥15 min from arrest. The WJC authors do not think there were obvious signals of potential benefit from immediate angiography in these groups. | ||
