Three million people in Sweden are trained cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR). Whether this training increases the frequency of bystander CPR or survival rate among persons who have out-of-hospital cardiac arrests has been questioned.We analyzed a total 30,381 witnessed from January 1, 1990, through December 31, 2011, to determine whether was performed before arrival emergency medical services (EMS) and early correlated with survival.CPR EMS 15,512 cases (51.1%) not 14,869 (48.9%). The...
Cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) performed by bystanders is associated with increased survival rates among persons out-of-hospital cardiac arrest. We investigated whether of bystander-initiated CPR could be the use a mobile-phone positioning system that instantly locate users and dispatch lay volunteers who were trained in to patient nearby
The use of an automated external defibrillator (AED) prior to EMS arrival can increase 30-day survival in out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) significantly. Drones or unmanned aerial vehicles (UAV) fly with high velocity and potentially transport devices such as AEDs the site OHCAs. aim this explorative study was investigate feasibility a drone system decreasing response time delivering AED. Data Global Positioning System (GPS) coordinates from historical OHCA Stockholm County used model...
This study compares the time to delivery of an automated external defibrillator using fully autonomous drones for simulated out-of-hospital cardiac arrests vs emergency medical services real-time responses.
Although sudden cardiac death (SCD) is recognized as a high-priority public health topic, reliable estimates of the incidence SCD or, more broadly, out-of-hospital arrest (OHCA), in population are scarce, especially European Union.The study objective was to determine and OHCA examined 4 large (ie, >2 million inhabitants) population-based prospective registries collecting emergency medical services (EMS)-attended with attempted resuscitation) (OHCA without obvious extracardiac causes) for >5...
Out-of-hospital cardiac arrest is a global public health issue experienced by ≈3.8 million people annually. Only 8% to 12% survive hospital discharge. Early defibrillation of shockable rhythms associated with improved survival, but ensuring timely access defibrillators has been significant challenge. To date, the development public-access programs, involving deployment automated external into space, main strategy address this Public-access defibrillator programs have outcomes for...
Underuse of warfarin for stroke prophylaxis in atrial fibrillation (AF) is extensive and represents a major problem clinical practice. To identify factors associated with treatment eligible AF patients.The study population consisted all Swedish resident patients at the Stockholm South General Hospital during 2002 (n=2796). Medical records were examined complemented by data from National Discharge Register. Sixty-eight percent (1898/2796) had indications, no apparent contraindications...
<h3>Importance</h3> Therapeutic hypothermia may increase survival with good neurologic outcome after cardiac arrest. Trans-nasal evaporative cooling is a method used to induce cooling, primarily of the brain, during cardiopulmonary resuscitation (ie, intra-arrest). <h3>Objective</h3> To determine whether prehospital trans-nasal intra-arrest improves compared initiated hospital arrival. <h3>Design, Setting, and Participants</h3> The PRINCESS trial was an investigator-initiated, randomized,...
Background: In out-of-hospital cardiac arrest, chest compression–only cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CO-CPR) has emerged as an alternative to standard CPR (S-CPR), using both compressions and rescue breaths. Since 2010, guidelines recommend CO-CPR for untrained bystanders trained unwilling perform The aim of this study was describe changes in the rate type performed before arrival emergency medical services (EMS) during 3 consecutive guideline periods correlation 30-day survival. Methods:...
Out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) affects some 275,000 individuals in Europe each year. Time from collapse to defibrillation is essential for survival. As emergency medical services (EMS) response times Sweden have increased, novel methods are needed facilitate early treatment. Unmanned aerial vehicles (i.e. drones) potential deliver automated external defibrillators (AED). The aim of this simulation study was explore bystanders’ experience a simulated OHCA-situation where drone delivers...
Abstract Aims Early defibrillation is critical for the chance of survival in out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA). Drones, used to deliver automated external defibrillators (AEDs), may shorten time defibrillation, but this has never been evaluated real-life emergencies. The aim study was investigate feasibility AED delivery by drones cases OHCA. Methods and results In prospective clinical trial, three AED-equipped were placed within controlled airspace Sweden, covering approximately 80 000...
BackgroundA novel approach to improve bystander defibrillation for out-of-hospital cardiac arrests is dispatch and deliver an automated external defibrillator (AED) directly the suspected arrest location by drone. The aim of this study was investigate how often a drone could AED before ambulance arrival measure median time benefit achieved deliveries.MethodsIn prospective observational study, five AED-equipped drones were placed within two separate controlled airspaces in Sweden, covering...
AimFast recognition of out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) by dispatchers might increase survival. The aim this observational study emergency calls was to (1) examine whether a machine learning framework (ML) can the proportion recognizing OHCA within first minute compared with dispatchers, (2) present performance ML different false positive rate (FPR) settings, (3) call characteristics influencing recognition.MethodsML be configured FPR i.e., more or less inclined suspect an depending on...
Smartphone dispatch of volunteer responders to nearby out-of-hospital cardiac arrests (OHCAs) has emerged in several emergency medical services, but no randomized clinical trials have evaluated the effect on bystander use automated external defibrillators (AEDs).To evaluate if AED could be increased by smartphone-aided lay with instructions collect AEDs compared go directly patients OHCAs start cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR).This trial assessed a system for smartphone individuals...
Hyperoxemia may aggravate reperfusion brain injury after cardiac arrest. The aim of this study was to the associations between different levels hyperoxemia in period arrest and 30-day survival.Nationwide observational using data from four compulsory Swedish registries. Adult in- out-of-hospital patients admitted an ICU, requiring mechanical ventilation, January 2010 March 2021, were included. partial oxygen pressure (PaO2) collected a standardized way at ICU admission (± one hour) according...
