Sociodemographic Factors And The Risk Of Paediatric Out-Of-Hospital Cardiac Arrest, Samina Idrees
Electronic Thesis and Dissertation Repository
Paediatric out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (POHCA) is associated with poor survival and severe neurological sequelae.

The findings from our systematic review indicate that there are racial disparities in POHCA risk and in the provision of bystander cardiopulmonary resuscitation. There was little evidence of sociodemographic disparities in bystander defibrillation, survival and neurological outcome, particularly across adjusted analyses. The findings from our case-control study in Ontario, Canada, indicate that children living in marginalized areas have an elevated risk of experiencing POHCA. We also found that children living in northern urban or …

Aim: To explore how nursing students with racially and ethnically minoritized identities experience a sense of belonging during their clinical placements.
Research Design: The researcher followed an interpretive descriptive design informed by intersectional …
