Methods of the 7th National Audit Project (NAP7) of the Royal College of Anaesthetists: peri‐operative cardiac arrest

Anaesthesia, Volume 77, Issue 12, Page 1376-1385, December 2022., 2022
Summary Cardiac arrest in the peri‐operative period is rare but associated with significant morbidity and mortality. Current reporting systems do not capture many such events, so there is an incomplete understanding of incidence and outcomes. As peri‐operative cardiac arrest is rare, many hospitals may only see a small number of cases over long periods,
