The results of this meta-analysis indicated no differences were found in Cerebral Performance Category (CPC) scores, survival to hospital admission and survival to discharge between manual cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) and mechanical CPR for out-of-hospital CA. Results: Four-hour survival was achieved in patients (%) with mechanical CPR and (%) with manual CPR (risk difference, %; 95% CI, % to %; P ). Survival with a CPC score of 1 or 2 occurred in 98 (%) vs 82 (%) (risk difference, %; 95% CI, % to %) at intensive care unit discharge, in (%) vs (%) (risk difference, %; 95% CI, % to %) at hospital discharge, in (%) vs 94 (%) (risk difference, %; 95% CI, %.
