The Outcomes of In-hospital Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation: A Cross-sectional Study in Iran

Background: Taking into account the lack of information in this field Iran, present study aimed at assessing five-year epidemiology and outcomes in-hospital cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) educational centers Kermanshah. Methods: A cross-sectional was conducted on 1000 cases resuscitation. The subjects were selected through systematic random sampling. Data gathering tool included a standard form based Utstein style framework cerebral performance categories (CPC). Results: Out resuscitations, 220 (22%) had return spontaneous circulation there 5.2% survival to discharge (STD). Logistic regression test showed that age < 50 years (P = 0.022), primary rhythm 0.012), duration 0.001), post Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS) cardiac arrest with witness or under monitoring 0.031) significant relationship patient after Therefore, these indices can be used predict hospital range According Fisher’s exact test, only post-resuscitation GCS CPC level 0.001). Conclusions: Despite improvement STD over past few years, are still not comparable those other countries. However, favorable neurological outcome an indicative good care services successful CPRs. This finding motivation for medical personnel doing better CPR operation.
