Why the study?
Do anesthesia-related and perioperative cardiac arrest rates differ by a country's Human Development Index (HDI) and over time?
Do anesthesia-related and perioperative cardiac arrest rates differ by a country's Human Development Index (HDI) and over time?
Anesthesia-related and perioperative cardiac arrest rates are inversely associated with a country's Human Development Index, highlighting persistent global disparities in perioperative safety.

First global meta-analysis benchmarks anesthesia-related CA rates by HDI; confirms higher rates in low-HDI countries and extends regional data for targeted research.
