Abstract
Few people would argue with the importance of survival as an outcome of cardiac arrest. However, once patients have ‘survived’, the quality of that survival in both the short and long-term is important. Although a range of perspectives are helpful, that of the patient is crucial, contributing experience and expertise that no-other stakeholder can provide. Almost twenty years ago Berwick1 suggested that ‘The ultimate measure by which to judge the quality of a medical effort is whether it helps patients (and their families) as they see it’.
