Outcomes of Rapid Defibrillation by Security Officers after Cardiac Arrest in Casinos

TL;DR: Rapid defibrillation by nonmedical personnel using an automated external defibrillator can improve survival after out-of-hospital cardiac arrest due to ventricular fibrillation.
Journal ArticleDOI

Minimally interrupted cardiac resuscitation by emergency medical services for out-of-hospital cardiac arrest

TL;DR: Survival-to-hospital discharge of patients with out-of-hospital cardiac arrest increased after implementation of MICR as an alternate EMS protocol, and survival was significantly better among patients who received MICR than those who did not.
Journal ArticleDOI

Chest Compression-Only CPR by Lay Rescuers and Survival From Out-of-Hospital Cardiac Arrest

TL;DR: Among patients with out-of-hospital cardiac arrest, layperson compression- only CPR was associated with increased survival compared with conventional CPR and no bystander CPR in this setting with public endorsement of chest compression-only CPR.
Journal ArticleDOI

Interruptions of Chest Compressions During Emergency Medical Systems Resuscitation

TL;DR: Frequent interruption of chest compressions results in no circulatory support during more than half of resuscitation efforts, which could be a major contributing factor to the continued poor outcome seen with OOH cardiac arrest.
Journal ArticleDOI

Gasping During Cardiac Arrest in Humans Is Frequent and Associated With Improved Survival

TL;DR: The results suggest that the recognition and importance of gasping should be taught to bystanders and emergency medical dispatchers so as not to dissuade them from initiating prompt resuscitation efforts when appropriate.
