Resuscitation
-
To describe health status and psychological distress among in-hospital cardiac arrest (IHCA) survivors in relation to gender. ⋯ Although the majority of survivors reported acceptable health status and no psychological distress, a substantial proportion reported severe problems. Women reported worse health status and more psychological distress compared to men. Therefore, a higher proportion of women may be in need of support. Health care professionals should make efforts to identify health problems among survivors and offer individualised support when needed.
