Bystander cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) significantly improves survival of cardiac arrest victims. Dispatch assistance increases bystander CPR, but the quality dispatcher-assisted CPR remains unsatisfactory. This study was conducted to assess effect adding interactive video communication dispatch instruction on chest compressions in simulated arrests.A randomized controlled with a scenario developed simulate public place.The victim by mannequin and cell phone for both voice modes....
For infant and child resuscitation, current basic life support guidelines recommend a compression depth of one third to half the anteroposterior chest diameter. This study was conducted assess actual depths in infants children when are strictly followed.Chest computed tomography scans 36 (<1 year old) 38 (1-8 years were reviewed. Patient demographic data collected from medical records. Measurements diameter taken anterior skin at either internipple line or middle lower sternum, perpendicular...
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...
Prehospital resuscitation for patients with major trauma emphasizes a load-and-go principle. For traumatic cardiac arrest (TCA) patients, the administration of vasopressors remains under debate. This study evaluated effectiveness epinephrine in prehospital setting TCA. We conducted retrospective cohort using prospectively collected registry out-of-hospital Taipei. Enrollees were ≥18 years age Patients signs obvious death like decapitation or rigor mortis excluded. grouped according to...
This was a study to evaluate the utilization of emergency medical services (EMS) systems during outbreak severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS), and assess incidence infection among technicians (EMTs).This prospective, observational conducted in EMS system Taipei, Taiwan. Probable/suspect cases SARS were defined by World Health Organization criteria. SARS-related transports categorized into 1) requests from hospitals for probable/suspect SARS, 2) quarantined individuals, 3) febrile...

Abstract Objective We aimed to investigate the effect of known heart disease on post‐out‐of‐hospital cardiac arrest ( OHCA ) survival outcomes, and its association with factors influencing survival. Methods This was an observational, retrospective study involving database from seven Asian countries in 2009–2012. Heart defined as a documented diagnosis coronary artery or congenital disease. Patients non‐traumatic arrests for whom resuscitation attempted medical histories were included....
