Written informed consent was obtained from all patients' legal surrogates.

: The 2020 ERC/ESICM algorithm reliably predicted poor outcome in patients treated with targeted temperature management after out-of-hospital cardiac arrest where withdrawal of life-sustaining therapy is uncommon. However, our results should be validated by prospective studies.
