Journal ArticleDOI
The role of bystanders, first responders, and emergency medical service providers in timely defibrillation and related outcomes after out-of-hospital cardiac arrest: Results from a statewide registry.
Carolina Malta Hansen,Kristian Kragholm,Christopher B. Granger,David Pearson,Clark Tyson,Lisa Monk,Claire C. Corbett,R. Darrell Nelson,Matthew E. Dupre,Matthew E. Dupre,Emil L. Fosbøl,Benjamin Strauss,Christopher B. Fordyce,Bryan McNally,James G. Jollis +14 more
TL;DR: Strategic efforts to increase bystander and first-responder defibrillation are warranted to increase survival after out-of-hospital cardiac arrest.
Journal ArticleDOI
Epidemiology and outcomes of out-of-hospital cardiac arrest in Rochester, New York.
Rollin J. Fairbanks,Manish N. Shah,E. Brooke Lerner,Kumar Ilangovan,Elliot C. Pennington,Sandra M. Schneider +5 more
TL;DR: This study finds a 5% survival to 1 year among OHCA patients in Rochester, NY, and finds a presenting rhythm of VF/VT and bystander CPR were associated with increased survival.
Journal ArticleDOI
The Effectiveness of Ultrabrief and Brief Educational Videos for Training Lay Responders in Hands-Only Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation Implications for the Future of Citizen Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation Training
Bentley J. Bobrow,Tyler F. Vadeboncoeur,Daniel W. Spaite,Jerald Potts,Kurt R. Denninghoff,Vatsal Chikani,Paula R. Brazil,Bob Ramsey,Benjamin S. Abella +8 more
TL;DR: Laypersons exposed to very short Hands-Only CPR videos are more likely to attempt CPR and show superior CPR skills than untrained laypersons.
Journal ArticleDOI
Characteristics and outcome among patients having out of hospital cardiac arrest at home compared with elsewhere
TL;DR: Sixty five per cent of out of hospital cardiac arrests in Sweden occur at home, and fewer than 2% were alive after one month, a strong independent predictor of adverse outcome.
Journal ArticleDOI
Advanced life support for out-of-hospital respiratory distress.
Ian G. Stiell,Daniel W. Spaite,Brian J Field,Lisa Nesbitt,Doug Munkley,Justin Maloney,Jon Dreyer,Lorraine Luinstra Toohey,Tony Campeau,Eugene Dagnone,Marion B Lyver,George A. Wells +11 more
TL;DR: The addition of a specific regimen of out-of-hospital advanced-life-support interventions to an existing EMS system that provides basic life support was associated with a decrease in the rate of death of 1.9 percentage points among patients with respiratory distress.

Journal ArticleDOI
Predicting survival from out-of-hospital cardiac arrest: a graphic model.
TL;DR: A graphic model that describes survival from sudden out-of-hospital cardiac arrest as a function of time intervals to critical prehospital interventions is developed and is useful in planning community EMS programs, comparing EMS systems, and showing how different arrival times within a system affect survival rate.

TL;DR: It has been shown perhaps for the first time that the correction of cardiac arrest outside hospital is a practicable proposition and no death has occurred in transit in a fifteen-month period.
