Contro: tutti i pazienti con arresto cardiaco dovrebbero essere trasferiti a un centro di arresto cardiaco.

Cardiac arrest centers (CACs) provide important critical expertise and advanced resources for select out-of-hospital cardiac arrest patients, and their role within regional systems of care is both intuitive and necessary. However, a universal transport strategy for all cardiac arrest patients to CACs is neither evidence-based nor system-efficient. Out-of-hospital cardiac arrest is a heterogeneous syndrome, and outcomes are driven predominantly by prehospital factors, patient characteristics, and arrest etiology. Existing data suggest that benefits associated with treatment at CACs are concentrated within specific subgroups, while indiscriminate transfer may delay stabilization, increase tran
