A witnessed or unwitnessed arrest patient in ICU must also code for Cooling Protocol-BRR or XBR.

For in-hospital witnessed arrests, code as a witnessed arrest (100-2) only if event was witnessed by hospital medical staff, this does not include house keeping, maintenance or visiting family. The witnessed cardiac arrest on the wiki is speaking only of "in Hospital" arrests when it requires hospital staff to witness.

For out of hospital arrests use anyone present as a witness. The only unwitnessed arrests are if no-one is around when the person collapses and no one knows when it occurs and when CPR is delayed because no one could do it.
