Adherence to guidelines is associated with improved survival following in-hospital cardiac arrest
2020, ResuscitationCitation Excerpt :In 2017, calling for the rescue team and CPR was performed within 1 min and defibrillation was made within 3 min in 80–90% of IHCAs in Sweden.5 The associations between an early call for the rescue team, the swift initiation of CPR, immediate defibrillation and survival following CA are well established.6–8 However, few studies have specifically investigated whether adherence to resuscitation guidelines is associated with increased chance of survival.
Need for speed in out-of-hospital cardiac arrest
2019, ResuscitationEducation in cardiopulmonary resuscitation in Sweden and its clinical consequences
2010, ResuscitationCitation Excerpt :The category of bystanders has been analysed in a limited number of previous studies outside Sweden. In Belgium 37% of CPR attempts were performed by lay people and 60% by health care providers.19,20 In Milwaukee, 24% were lay people and 35% medical personnel.21
Out-of-hospital cardiac arrests occurring in primary health care facilities in Singapore
2007, ResuscitationCitation Excerpt :The “chain of survival” concept2 states that survival can be improved with early access, early cardio-pulmonary resuscitation (CPR), early defibrillation and early advanced care. There is currently good research that indicates this is true with shorter response times,3 early CPR,4,5 and early defibrillation (<8 min).6,7 Primary health care practitioners, general practitioners (GPs) and primary health care nurses can have an important role in the management of OHCA.8,9
Outcome after out-of-hospital cardiac arrest in a physician-staffed emergency medical system according to the Utstein style
2007, American Heart JournalCitation Excerpt :Factors such as witnessed cardiac arrest, VF in the first recorded ECG, or shorter response time intervals (<8 minutes) were associated with higher survival rates at the time of hospital discharge. Previous studies have shown that early initiation of CPR is associated with a more favorable outcome.10,11 The present data are reported according to the recommendations of the Utstein consensus conference to allow comparison of our EMS with others.
Incidence of cross-border emergency care and outcomes of cardiopulmonary resuscitation in a unique European region
2007, ResuscitationCitation Excerpt :The latter has been found to be associated with poor cerebral performance and survival in two other investigations.23,24 However, interpretation of such findings have to be cautious since poor neurological function following cardiac arrest is mainly determined by the “no-flow” and “low-flow” duration.25 Interestingly, we found a significantly higher use of adrenaline in the physician-staffed EMS systems of Germany and Belgium.
