Emergency department cardiac arrest in Thailand: a two-regional medical center comparative cohort study of characteristics, resuscitation processes, and outcomes
Emergency department cardiac arrest in Thailand mirrors global patterns, with a predominance of non-shockable rhythms and low discharge survival rates. Observed institutional variation in patient characteristics and resuscitation processes highlights the need for standardized protocols, training, and the development of national emergency department cardiac arrest registries to support quality improvement in low- and middle-income country settings.
