Article Synopsis
- A multicenter study was conducted on 1,200 paediatric patients in emergency departments to identify risk factors for cardiac arrest during intubation.
- Researchers focused on six high-risk criteria, including persistent hypoxemia and hypotension, and found that 27.7% of patients met at least one of these factors.
- The study concluded that patients meeting any high-risk criteria had significantly higher rates of peri-intubation cardiac arrest, need for ECMO, and mortality compared to those who did not meet any criteria.
