Overview
PEA is associated with a poor prognosis, particularly if the underlying cause is not readily identified and treated. The presence of a QRS interval > 0.20 seconds is associated with a poorer prognosis. The survival of patients with PEA as a presenting rhythm for sudden cardiac arrest is poorer than ventricular tachycardia or ventricular fibrillation.[1]
Natural History
- The symptoms of (disease name) usually develop in the first/ second/ third decade of life, and start with symptoms such as ___.
- The symptoms of (disease name) typically develop ___ years after exposure to ___.
- If left untreated, [#]% of patients with [disease name] may progress to develop [manifestation 1], [manifestation 2], and [manifestation 3].
Complications
- Common complications of [disease name] include:
- [Complication 1]
- [Complication 2]
- [Complication 3]
Prognosis
- Prognosis is generally poor, and the 1/5/10-year mortality/survival rate of patients with [disease name] is approximately [--]%.
- Depending on the extent of the [tumor/disease progression] at the time of diagnosis, the prognosis may vary. However, the prognosis is generally regarded as poor/good/excellent.
- The presence of [characteristic of disease] is associated with a particularly [good/poor] prognosis among patients with [disease/malignancy].
- The prognosis varies with the [characteristic] of tumor; [subtype of disease/malignancy] have the most favorable prognosis.
Natural History, Complications and Prognosis
- The survival of patients with out of hospital occurrence of PEA is 19.5% compared to 11.2% among patients with in hospital PEA, likely due to the higher incidence of reversible causes among patients with out of hospital arrest.[1][2][3]
- Among 11,963 patients with PEA, only 11% survived, 62% of which had good neurological outcomes.[4]
- According to the Resuscitation Outcomes Consortium, the survival of patients with SCA during hospitalization is 8% among subjects with PEA compared to 30.5% for subjects with VT or VF; therefore, strategies for improving survival after PEA due to SCA should be implemented.
