Public locations of cardiac arrest. Implications for public access defibrillation.
BACKGROUND The purpose of this study was to describe the public locations of cardiac arrest and to estimate the annual incidence of cardiac arrest per site to determine optimal placement of automatic external defibrillators (AEDs). This was a retrospective cohort study. METHODS AND RESULTS Locations of cardiac arrest were abstracted from data collected by emergency medical service programs in...

متن کاملPublic access defibrillation remains out of reach for most victims of out-of-hospital sudden cardiac arrest.
INTRODUCTION Public access defibrillation (PAD) prior to ambulance arrival is a key determinant of survival from out-of-hospital (OOH) cardiac arrest. Implementation of PAD has been underway in the UK for the past 12 years, and its importance in strengthening the chain of survival has been recognised in the government's recent 'Cardiovascular Disease Outcomes Strategy'. The extent of use of PAD...
متن کاملPublic access defibrillation in out-of-hospital cardiac arrest: a community-based study.
BACKGROUND The dissemination and use of automated external defibrillators (AEDs) beyond traditional emergency medical services (EMS) into the community has not been fully evaluated. We evaluated the frequency and outcome of non-EMS AED use in a community experience. METHODS AND RESULTS The investigation was a cohort study of out-of-hospital cardiac arrest cases due to underlying heart disease...
