Neurologic etiologies of cardiac arrest are uncommon and understudied. We described the characteristics patients who arrested from neurologic tested hypotheses that survival, rate withdrawal life-sustaining therapy for perceived poor prognosis (WLST-N), early (≤1 day arrest) WLST-N would differ between those did not etiologies. conducted a retrospective study resuscitated arrest. cohort causes. assessed survival with without using multivariable logistic regression. used Fisher's exact test to compare proportion by etiology. performed time-to-event analysis Cox regression association etiology WLST-N, censoring death other cause at hospital discharge. included 4,414 patients, whom 158 (3.6%) Compared non-neurologic etiologies, had lower odds (OR 0.39; 95% CI, 0.21-0.70) worse functional outcomes (p < 0.001). Patients increased hazard (HR 2.4; 1.87 - 3.15) greater were associated in-hospital mortality. Early mortality among was driven treatment prognosis, suggesting prognostic nihilism.
