In-hospital versus out-of-hospital cardiac arrest: Characteristics and outcomes in patients admitted to intensive care after return of spontaneous circulation

AAAxel AnderssonIAIsabelle ArctaediusTCTobias Cronberg

Structured PICO

Does the location of cardiac arrest (IHCA vs OHCA) independently predict outcomes in patients admitted to intensive care after return of spontaneous circulation?

P
Population
Patients admitted to intensive care after cardiac arrest with return of spontaneous circulation
I
Intervention
In-hospital cardiac arrest (IHCA)
C
Comparator
Out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA)
O
Outcome
Outcome (unspecified in abstract)

Cardiac arrest characteristics, rather than the location of the arrest (in-hospital vs out-of-hospital), are independent predictors of outcome for patients admitted to the ICU after return of spontaneous circulation.

Abstract

In patients admitted to intensive care after cardiac arrest, patients who suffered IHCA vs OHCA differed in demographics, co-morbidities, cardiac arrest characteristics and outcomes. In multivariable analyses, cardiac arrest characteristics were independent predictors of outcome, whereas location of arrest (IHCA vs OHCA) was not.
