This $140,329 Project Grant award from the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute (NHLBI) under the Cardiovascular Diseases Research program (CFDA 93.837) will support research evaluating racial and ethnic disparities in patient outcomes and intra-arrest resuscitation practices for in-hospital cardiac arrest (IHCA). The key objectives are to: 1) Examine racial and ethnic disparities in time to return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC), survival to hospital discharge, and favorable functional outcomes among Hispanic, Black, and White IHCA patients; 2) Assess racial and ethnic differences in time to shock delivery, epinephrine administration, and termination of resuscitation during IHCA; and 3) Quantify the impact of racial/ethnic differences in time to ROSC on disparities in survival and functional outcomes. This research aims to identify modifiable areas for improving IHCA care and mitigating health inequities. The project will be conducted by the University of Pittsburgh from August 2024 to July 2026.
