Race, Ethnicity, Insurance Payer, and Pediatric Cardiac Arrest Survival
In this retrospective cohort study of pediatric in-hospital cardiac arrest in a large, national, administrative dataset, children of racial and ethnic minority groups receiving CPR had higher odds of in-hospital mortality. In addition, the odds of in-hospital mortality among children receiving CPR were higher at hospitals with the highest proportion of Black patients.
