BackgroundSocioeconomic status (SES) is a well-established determinant of cardiovascular health. However, the relationship between SES and clinical outcomes in long-term out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) is less well-understood. The Singapore Housing Index (SHI) is a validated building-level SES indicator. We investigated whether SES as measured by SHI is associated with long-term OHCA survival in Singapore. MethodsWe conducted an open cohort study with linked data from the Singapore Pan-Asian Resuscitation Outcomes Study (PAROS), and the Singapore Registry of Births and Deaths (SRBD) from 2010 to 2020. We fitted generalized structural equation models, calculating hazard ratios (HRs) using a Weibull model. We constructed Kaplan–Meier survival curves and calculated the predicted marginal probability for each SHI category. ResultsWe included 659 cases. In both univariable and multivariable analyses, SHI did not have a significant association with survival. Indirect pathways of SHI mediated through covariates such as Emergency Medical Services (EMS) response time (HR of low-medium, high-medium and high SHI when compared to low SHI: 0.98 (0.88–1.10), 1.01 (0.93–1.11), 1.02 (0.93–1.12) respectively), and age of arrest (HR of low-medium, high-medium and high SHI when compared to low SHI: 1.02 (0.75–1.38), 1.08 (0.84–1.38), 1.18 (0.91–1.54) respectively) had no significant association with OHCA survival. There was no clear trend in the predicted marginal probability of survival among the different SHI categories. ConclusionsWe did not find a significant association between SES and OHCA survival outcomes in residential areas in Singapore. Among other reasons, this could be due to affordable healthcare across different socioeconomic classes.
