∙ 14y agoSurvival in cardiac arrest decreases by about 10 percent every minute of arrest. So as you can see, within 5 minutes, you already decrease the likelihood of survival by about 50%. This number does not count meaningful survival, meaning that the majority who do survive will likely have anoxic brain injury.

What impacts does delayed defibrillation have on a causalty of sudden cardiac arrest?
Ventricular defibrillation can lead to cardiac arrest and the heart could stop beating altogether. Once in cardiac arrest, every minute that passes without defibrillation the survival rate decreases about 7 to 10 percent and then dropping to less than 50 percent. Why can't we just call 9-1-1? Emergency medical services may not be able to respond fast enough during a victim's cardiac arrest. They might have to deal with crowded urban areas, multiple story buildings, rural areas or large complexes. In fact the average response time nationally is between 10 to 12 minutes, so the best EMS responders may not arrive there in time. The survival rate is only 5 in 100 SCA victims if defibrillation is not done early enough. More lives can be saved because of the very practical design of the AED's and the fact that most people are capable of using them. The more portable defibrillators that are put into public and private places, the better the chances for survival in SCA victims FOR MORE INFORMATION AND A VIDEO GO TO: http://www.emergencysuppliesinfo.com/what-is-a-defibrillator.html

What are the recovery rates and treatments for ovarian cancer?
Ovarian cancer can be treated with rounds of chemotherapy. The earlier the treatment, the greater the chance of survival. Stage 1 of the cancer has a 90 percent survival rate, while stage 4 only has a survival rate of 10 percent.
