Kurzfassung:
The aim of this systematic review and meta-analysis was to investigate the associations of community-level socioeconomic status (SES) on outcomes of patients with out-of hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA). Methods: A systematic literature review was conducted using PubMed, EMBASE, and the Cochrane database according to guidelines of Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA). We included literature that presented the outcomes based on community-level SES among patients with OHCA. SES indicators included economic indicators such as income, wealth, and occupation, as well as combined indicators, where any of these indicators were integrated. Outcomes were bystander cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) and survival to discharge. Results: From 1394 titles, 10 cross-sectional observational studies fulfilled inclusion and exclusion criteria, representing 118,942 patients with OHCA. The odds ratios (ORs) of bystander CPR and survival to discharge for lower community-level SES patients were lower than those for higher community-level SES by economic SES indicators (bystander CPR OR 0.67; 95% CI 0.51–0.89, survival to discharge OR 0.60; 95% CI 0.35–1.02). Based on combined SES indicators the results showed similar patterns (bystander CPR OR 0.80; 95% CI 0.75–0.84, survival to discharge OR 0.76; 95% CI 0.63–0.92). Conclusion: In this meta-analysis, community-level SES was significantly associated with bystander CPR and survival among patients with OHCA.
