Doctors should tailor the treatment they give to cardiac arrest patients in hospital, a study suggests.

A team from the US National Registry of CPR said doctors should focus more on treating breathing problems.

Its analysis of nearly 38,000 patients found the cardiac arrest of people in hospital was more likely to be related to breathing than heart rhythm.

The study in the Journal of American Medical Association says most hospital cases are assumed to be rhythm-related.
