Out-of-hospital cardiac arrest in patients with and without psychiatric disorders: Differences in use of coronary angiography, coronary revascularization, and implantable cardioverter-defibrillator and survival

Journal of the American Heart Association Aug 22, 2019

Barcella CA, Mohr GH, Kragholm KH, et al. - Researchers examined whether patients with and without psychiatric disorders differ in in-hospital cardiovascular procedures following out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA). From the Danish nationwide registries, 7,288 hospitalized patients who had experienced an OHCA were included in this work. Of these, 1,661 (22.8%) had a psychiatric disorder. Observations suggested a lower likelihood of receiving post-OHCA coronary angiography (CAG) and implantable cardioverter-defibrillator implantation among psychiatric patients vs nonpsychiatric patients but with the same likelihood of coronary revascularization among patients undergoing CAG. However, a lower survival was observed among psychiatric patients irrespective of angiographic procedures.
