[Recording cardiorespiratory arrest by the Utstein method].

The author introduces a "Case History Form to Serve to Follow the Process of Cardiorespiratory Arrest" drawn up by means of the recommended guidelines for uniform data communication in cases of cardiorespiratory arrest outside the hospital, following the Utstein method. At the same time, given that there still are no set guidelines in the hospital milieu, the author includes a form on which to record the subsequent actions carried out during cardiorespiratory arrest. This case history form was presented orally at a Congress on Resuscitation in Seville.
