Cardiac arrest within 24 hours of emergency surgery carries an 85% mortality rate at 24 hours, with survival strongly influenced by patient comorbidities, surgical site, and CPR duration.
Punjasawadwong et al. (2014) conducted a cohort in Cardiac arrest within 24 hours of anesthesia for emergency surgery (n=751). Surgery in the upper abdominal site vs. Other surgical sites was evaluated on Death at 24 hours (OR 14.64, 95% CI 2.83-75.82). In patients receiving CPR within 24 hours of emergency surgery anesthesia, 24-hour mortality was 85.0%; upper abdominal surgery was a major prognostic factor for death (OR 14.64; 95% CI 2.83-75.82).
