Erken tanı ve müdahale şansı sağlaması nedeni ile, hastane içi tanıklı kardiyak arrestlerde sağkalım oranı hastane dışı kardiyak arrestlerden daha yüksektir. Gerekli tıbbi cihazlara hızlı erişim geri döndürülebilir nedenlerin tanısının hızlıca gözden geçirilmesini ve bu nedenlere yönelik tedavilerin erken başlamasını sağlamaktadır.Son zamanlarda geri döndürülebilir nedenlerin araştırılmasında ultrasonografi kullanımının yeri sıklıkla vurgulanmaktadır.

In-hospital witnessed cardiac arrest leads to more successful outcomes than out-of-hospital cardiac arrests, as it provides the chance for early and effective intervention. The rapid and on-site use of the necessary equipment that can provide a quick review of reversible causes and early intervention of the reversible causes in the initial stages of resuscitation can provide a successful resuscitation opportunity. Recently, the effectiveness of ultrasonographic examinations has been stated and recommended in the detection of reversible causes.
