Overview

Analysis reveals rising cardiac arrest mortality rates in obese adults, highlighting disparities by age and race.

Key Points

  • Cardiac arrest mortality rates among obese adults rose significantly from 11.3 in 1999 to 32.5 in 2023.
  • Obese men experienced higher age-adjusted mortality rates (24.6) compared to women (19.5), with a steeper increase.
  • Non-Hispanic Blacks had the highest age-adjusted mortality rate at 38.4, while Non-Hispanic Whites showed the largest rise.
  • Geographic disparities exist, with Mississippi reporting the highest AAMR (68.7) and urban regions showing upward trends.
