Abstract:
Objective:To investigate the clinical situation of 201 emergency adult sudden death patients, and analyze the influence of white blood cell count and arterial blood lactate level on prognosis.Methods:The clinical data of 201 patients diagnosed with sudden death in the emergency department of Medical College of Cangzhou people's Hospital from January 2017 to January 2021 were retrospectively analyzed. The gender, age, disease composition and etiology of the patients were statistically analyzed. The independent sample t-test was used to compare the measurement data with normal distribution, the χ 2 test or Fisher exact probability method was used to compare the counting data between groups, and the logistic regression model was used to screen the risk factors of emergency death, and the impact of white blood cell count and arterial blood lactate level on the prognosis was analyzed. Results:After active rescue, 11.44% (23/201) of the patients were successfully rescued, and 88.56% (178/201) of the patients were ineffective; ≥46-≤65 years old was the age group with high incidence of sudden death (55.22%(111/201)). The proportion of male (43.28% (87/201), 23.38% (42/201)) in the age group of ≥46-≤65 years old and the age group over 65 years old were higher than that of female (11.94% (24/201), 14.43% (29/201)), with a statistically significant difference (χ 2=4.801, 9.209; P=0.028, 0.002). In the past history of sudden death patients, the proportion of cardiovascular disease (53.23% (107/201)) was the highest; the proportion of patients may have inducements before sudden death was 74.13% (149/201), the proportion of patients have premonitory symptoms before sudden death was 67.66% (136/201), and sudden cardiac death was the first cause. Logistic regression analysis showed that white blood cell count ( OR=4.442,95% CI: 1.898-10.395), arterial blood lactic acid concentration ( OR=4.272,95% CI: 2.024-9.016), and albumin concentration ( OR=2.657,95% CI: 1.302-5.422) were independent risk factors affecting emergency sudden death patients ( P values were 0.001, <0.001, 0.007, respectively). Conclusions:There are some differences in gender, age and past history of adult sudden death patients. Most of them have premonitory symptoms and inducements. Sudden cardiac death is the primary cause. The increases of white blood cell count and lactic acid level, the decrease of albumin level are the risk factors of sudden death.
