    Objective: To compare the quality and correct the deficiencies of cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) procedures performed in patients who developed cardiopulmonary arrest before or after Emergency Department admission. Methods: This study was conducted on patients who were applied CPR at Sisli Etfal Training and Research and Research Hospital, Emergency Department between 01 January 2012 and 31 December 2012. Chi-square and Mann-Whitney U test were used to compare the patients' data. The study data were analyzed in SPSS 18.0 software package. A P value less than 0.05 was considered statistically significant. Results: A total of 155 patients who were applied CPR were included in the analysis. Among the study patients, seventy eight (50.3%) were brought to Emergency Department after developing cardiopulmonary arrest while 77 (49.7%) developed cardiopulmonary arrest at Emergency Department. The mean age of the study population was (66 +/- 16) years and 64% of the patients were male. The initial rhythms of the CPR-applied patients were different (P < 0.05). There were no significant differences between the groups with respect to the treatment protocols or CPR responses (P > 0.05). The CPR response time was longer in ED (P < 0.05). The survival rate was lower in the trauma patients who developed cardiopulmonary arrest at ED (P < 0.05). Conclusions: The scientific data obtained in this study suggest that an early response and therapy improves outcomes in CPR procedure.
