AbstractCardiac arrest calls at a new tertiary referral hospital are reviewed over a two year period. The formation of a committee responsible for conducting and supervising the resuscitation team is outlined. There were 146 calls for 120 patients, 49 patients (40.8%) were initially resuscitated and 8 (6.66%) of these were discharged home. Age did not appear to influence the prognosis. Coronary heart disease was the commonest pathology (40%) of ventricular fibrillation and tachycardia were the leading causes of cardiac arrest.
