Pediatric Cardiology May 16, 2018
Sakai-Bizmark R, et al. - Using the Nationwide Emergency Department Sample from 2006 to 2013, the researchers analyzed nationally representative incidence rates of Emergency Department (ED) visits due to sudden cardiac arrest (SCA) in pediatric and young adult populations, and basic characteristics of the ED visits with SCA, and patient and hospital factors associated with survival after SCA. They used a logistic regression model adjusted by a patient- and hospital-level variables. They concluded that no benefit of regionalized care for post-SCA in ≤ 30-year-old populations, however, with further examination of the differences between sexes, new management strategies for SCA cases could be developed.
