OUT OF HOSPITAL CARDIAC ARREST AND SURVIVAL RATE: A SYSTEMATIC REVIEW
Main Article Content
Abstract
Objective: Overview of epidemiological characteristics and survival rates after out-of-hospital cardiac arrest from 2013 to 2023 in the world. Research object and method: Research questions are set according to the PICO structure to identify search keywords. Limiting the search to PubMed to publications in English and studies performed on humans, between 2013 and 2023, the selected study design was observational studies. Results: The total number of articles found was 2721, after screening, there were 95 remaining articles included in the analysis. The region with the most research included in the study is WPR (52.6%), AMR region accounts for 24.2%, EUR accounts for 22.1% and there is 1 article belonging to both AMR and EUR regions. 56/95 studies provided data on hospital discharge survival rates, of which the lowest recorded rate was 0.6% and the highest was 71.4%. 32.1% of studies showed a survival rate to leave the hospital <10%, 32.1% showed a survival rate to leave the hospital from 10 to 20%, 5.4% showed a survival rate to leave the hospital > 50%. Conclusion: The epidemiology of out-of-hospital cardiac arrest varies by country and region. The likelihood of survival after discharge from the hospital is higher in European and American countries than in Asian countries.
