Climate change is a global public health problem. With the improvement of the industrialization level of various countries, the problem is becoming more and more serious. The mortality and disability rates of cardiac arrest are very high. Climate change affects the occurrence of cardiac arrest, and extreme weather such as high temperature are the risk factors for cardiac arrest. Previous studies have explored the effects of climate change and cardiac arrest, however the study design and exposure assessment of these studies differ, and the outcome associations are inconsistent. This paper aims to review the relationship between climate change and the onset of cardiac arrest and provide a theoretical basis for the prevention and treatment of cardiac arrest.
