  1. Values are expressed numbers (percentages) unless indicated otherwise
  2. TTM Targeted temperature management, n-TTM Normothermic TTM, h-TTM Hypothermic TTM, OR Odds ratio, AOR Adjusted odds ratio, CI Confidence interval, IPW Inverse probability weighting
  3. aShown is the AOR from the multivariable logistic regression analysis adjusted for age, sex, bystander witness, bystander CPR, use of public-access AEDs, prehospital epinephrine administration, prehospital advanced airway management, time from EMS call to contact with the patients, time from EMS contact with the patients to hospital arrival, type of centre, the annual volume of ECMO used for OHCA at each centre, success of PCI, timing of ECMO start, and time from hospital arrival to induction of ECMO
  4. bShown is the odds ratio from the univariable logistic regression analysis with IPW
