Location of In-Hospital Cardiac Arrest: An Updated Analysis of Epidemiology, Emergency Response, and Outcomes.
Observational study in Critical care medicine, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
objectivesIn the United States, in-hospital cardiac arrest (IHCA) affects about 290,000 adults per year. This study provides an updated and expanded analysis of the epidemiology, resuscitative response, and outcomes following IHCA in various hospital locations.
designThis observational cohort study used the prospectively collected nationwide Get With The Guidelines-Resuscitation (GWTG-R) registry.
settingGWTG-R registry. PATIENTS: All adult patients with an index cardiac arrest in the emergency department (ED), ICU, or ward (telemetry or nontelemetry) between 2010 and 2021 were included.
interventionsNone. MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN
resultsA total of 235,560 IHCA events were included, of which 53.4% ( n = 125,798) occurred in the ICU, 14.0% ( n = 32,862) in the ED, 16.0% ( n = 37,780) on telemetry wards, and 16.6% ( n = 39,120) on nontelemetry wards. Shockable initial rhythms were identified in 15.9% ( n = 37,465) of IHCAs, with the highest prevalence in monitored locations. Adjusted for confounding factors, a survival rate of 21.2% (95% CI, 20.6-21.9%) was found in the ICU, 22.2% (95% CI, 21.4-23.1%) in the ED, 23.0% (95% CI, 22.3-23.7%) on telemetry wards, and 19.2% (95% CI, 18.4-20.0%) on nontelemetry wards.
conclusionsSurvival after IHCA is low and varies based on the hospital location of the IHCA. Patients with IHCA on nontelemetry wards have the lowest probability of in-hospital survival after IHCA.
