Cardiac arrest survival in pediatric and general emergency departments.
Understanding whether pediatric emergency departments (EDs) have higher survival than general EDs may help identify ways to improve care for all patients with out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA). Researchers sought to determine if OHCA survival differs between pediatric and general EDs. In their nationally representative sample, survival from nontraumatic OHCA was higher in pediatric EDs than general EDs. Survival did not differ in traumatic OHCA.
