Abstract

Study Objectives: Emergency physicians often care for suspects in police custody. Sudden, unexpected In-Custody Death (ICD) is an alarming event that is not rare. There is not a universal method in place to track ICD events so it's difficult to know how often it occurs or what factors surround each ICD. Since ICD has lately been a popular media topic, the lack of a universal tracking method may lead to faulty conclusions regarding causation or association. This report uses a novel and prospective search process to gather data about ICD and analyzes the factors reported for significance.
