A low bystander cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) rate is one of the factors associated with cardiac arrest survival. This study aimed to assess knowledge, attitudes, and willingness towards performing CPR barriers for implementation bystander-initiated CPR.Telephone interviews were conducted using an author-designed validated structured questionnaire in Taiwan. After obtaining a stratified random sample from census, results weighted match population data. The affecting analysed logistic...

Background Outbreaks of emerging infectious diseases, such as COVID-19, have negative impacts on bystander cardiopulmonary resuscitation (BCPR) for fear transmission while breaking social distancing rules. The latest guidelines recommend hands-only (CPR) and facemask use. However, public willingness in this setup remains unknown. Methods A cross-sectional, unrestricted volunteer Internet survey was conducted to assess individuals’ attitudes behaviors toward performing BCPR, pre-existing CPR...

Background Basic life support (BLS) education is essential for improving bystander cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) rates, but the imparting of such faces obstacles during outbreak emerging infectious diseases, as COVID-19. When face-to-face teaching limited, distance learning—blended learning (BL) or an online-only model—is encouraged. However, evidence regarding effect CPR training scarce, and comparative studies on classroom-based BL (CBL) are lacking. While other strategies have...

Objective The prehospital termination of resuscitation (TOR) guidelines for traumatic cardiopulmonary arrest (TCPA) was proposed in 2003. Its multiple descriptors cases where efforts can be terminated make it complex to apply the field. Here we a simplified rule and evaluated its predictive performance. Methods We analysed Utstein registry data 2009–2013 from Taipei emergency medical service test TOR that comprises two criteria: blunt trauma injury presence asystole. Enrolees were adults...

Cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) is critical for out-of-hospital cardiac arrest patients but prone to rapid changes and errors. Effective teamwork leadership are essential high-quality CPR. We aimed introduce the Airway-Circulation-Leadership-Support (A-C-L-S) model in emergency department (ED) address these challenges.
