Yohichi Seino, Ryuko Ito, Ichiro Suzuki, Keiji Enzan and Hideo Inaba. A Utstein-Style Analysis of Prognostic Factors Related to Survival in Out-of-Hospital Cardiac Arrests in Akita-City, Japan. Tohoku J. Exp. Med., 2001, 194(2), 107-119.
In previous publication in the Tohoku Journal of Experimental Medicine, we reported the “Out-of-Hospital Cardiac Arrests in Akita.” After publication of the paper, we have become aware of a crucial error in the sampling of the patients. The conclusion based on such incorrectly obtained data may cause serious confusions in the field of emergency medicine. We therefore wish to retract the above paper.
