TL;DR: It appears that only a few locations may be amenable to efficient placement of PAD, and all communities considering public placement of AEDs should identify high-risk sites to guide the rational deployment of Aeds.

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.
