Abstract

Background: Chronic kidney disease (CKD) increases cardiac arrest (CA) risk because of renal and cardiovascular interactions.

Methods: Using Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) data from 1999 to 2020, we analyzed CKD-related CA mortality and the impact of social vulnerability index (SVI).

Results: We identified 336 494 CKD-related CA deaths, with stable age-adjusted mortality rates over time. Disparities were observed across gender, racial/ethnic, and geographic subpopulations, with higher mortality among males, Hispanic and non-Hispanic Black populations, and those in urban and Western regions. Higher SVI correlated with increased mortality.

Conclusions: CKD-related CA mortality rates are stable, with disparities across demographics; higher SVI correlates with increased mortality, highlighting needed interventions.
