Why the study?
What is the incidence and what are the risk factors for intubation-related cardiac arrest in critically ill adult patients?
What is the incidence and what are the risk factors for intubation-related cardiac arrest in critically ill adult patients?
Identifying and modifying risk factors for intubation-related cardiac arrest may decrease its prevalence and 28-day ICU mortality.
2.5% ICU intubation cardiac arrest rate with 3 modifiable risks; hypothesis-generating for targeted interventions in prospective trials.
ICU intubation-related cardiac arrest occurs in one of 40 procedures with high immediate and 28-day mortality. We identified five independent risk factors for cardiac arrest, three of which are modifiable, possibly to decrease intubation-related cardiac arrest prevalence and 28-day ICU mortality.
