Red cell distribution width (RDW) is a quantitative measure of the variability in size of erythrocytes and it is used for the differential diagnosis of anemia. Moreover, in critically ill patients, high RDW values have been associated with increased hospital mortality. No data on the impact of RDW on the outcome of patients resuscitated from cardiac arrest (CA) are available.
