OHCA of eICU

[WSX19960424]

How to extract the patients of OHCA (out-of hospital cardiac arrest)? There are many diagnoses named "cardiac arrest" in eICU. But I cannot distinguish between in-hospital and out-of-hospital cardiac arrest Hope to answer for me. Thanks!

I'm not sure if we have this information exactly. You may want to look at the hospitaladmitsource in the patient table, which would give you an idea when combined with the cardiac arrest diagnosis' offset about when the cardiac arrest dx was made and how the patient came to the hospital.
