Factors associated with survival after pediatric in-hospital cardiac arrest: A national database analysis 2015–2022
Pediatric IHCA in Thailand remains highly fatal despite recent declines in incidence and in-hospital mortality. During a median follow-up of 67 months, nearly one-third of survivors died after discharge, underscoring the substantial long-term mortality burden. Metabolic derangements and organ dysfunction were strongly associated with post-discharge mortality, highlighting the need for targeted strategies to improve both survival and long-term outcomes.
