Cardiac arrest has become one of the most common cause of death faced by individuals in today's scenario. Cardiopulmonary arrests or cardiac arrests can occur unexpectedly and increase the mortality rates. Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation (CPR) is a technique developed in an effort to save the life of patients experiencing a cardiac arrest. However, the modern CPR, in spite of being introduced 40 years ago, has not been able to improve the mortality rate. Dataset and Methods: The Study involved the analysis of publicly available information was conducted at ASIR Central Hospital in Saudi Arabia in order to collect the data of cases regarding in-hospital heart arrests in the ICU to answer the hypothesis question. In this study, the effective use of ADE has also been explored, which can be an important technique in saving the lives of patients suffering from a cardiac arrest. Some solutions can be suggested afterwards, based on the study to improve the survival rate. The study will help in exploring the important factors, which will help in improving the survival rate of patients and improving the quality of the life of patients. Conclusion: The survival outcome indicated that patients were significantly more likely to die (55.3%) than survive (44.7%) and The vast majority of patients were treated with adrenaline (96.1%) at the time of cardiac arrest, Out of those individuals who received three doses of adrenaline, a majority survived (42.5% died). Out of those who received four doses of adrenaline and were under 61 years of age
