Evaluating Dispatch-Assisted CPR Using the CARES Registry

Prehospital Emergency Care, 2017
Dispatch-assisted cardiopulmonary resuscitation (DA-CPR) has been shown to improve cardiac arrest survival. Recent literature has proposed dispatch metrics for provision of this intervention. Our objectives are to: use the Cardiac Arrest Registry to Enhance Survival (CARES) to compare current practice to proposed DA-CPR guidelines; describe barriers to

Simplified dispatch-assisted CPR instructions outperform standard protocol

Resuscitation, 2007
Dispatch-assisted chest compressions only CPR (CC-CPR) has gained widespread acceptance, and recent research suggests that increasing the proportion of compression time during CPR may increase survival from out-of-hospital cardiac arrest. We created a simplified CC-CPR protocol to reduce time to start chest compressions and to increase the proportion ...

Dispatcher assisted CPR: Implementation of 2010 guidelines in Germany

Resuscitation, 2013
Purpose of the study: According to 2010 guidelines Emergency Medical Dispatchers are supposed to offer CPR instructions via telephone.1 Current publications show that implementation of guidelines is a crucial point.2 Aim of the study was to determine the degree of implementation in Germany. Materials and methods: A questionnaire containing 15 items was

A novel protocol for dispatcher assisted CPR improves CPR quality and motivation among rescuers—A randomized controlled simulation study

Resuscitation, 2017
Emergency dispatchers use protocols to instruct bystanders in cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR). Studies changing one element in the dispatcher's protocol report improved CPR quality. Whether several changes interact is unknown and the effect of combining multiple changes previously reported to improve CPR quality into one protocol remains to be ...

Survival after dispatcher-assisted cardiopulmonary resuscitation in out-of-hospital cardiac arrest

Resuscitation, 2020
Aim Strategies to increase provision of bystander CPR include mass education of laypersons. Additionally, programs directed at emergency dispatchers to provide CPR instructions during emergency calls to untrained bystanders have emerged.

Dispatcher-assisted CPR can it do harm as well as good?

Resuscitation, 2022
Outcomes for patients with out-of-hospital cardiac arrest can be improved by bystander cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR). Dispatcher-assisted CPR increases both the likelihood of CPR being performed, and the chance of survival for the arrested patient.

Dispatcher assisted CPR: implementation and potential benefit. A 12-year study

Resuscitation, 2003
Our objectives are to describe details of the dispatcher assisted cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) instruction program we implemented during a 12 years study and to provide estimates of the potential number of out-of-hospital cardiac arrests that might benefit from such instruction based on data from the last 77 months.Basic data were obtained for ...

Skills among young and elderly laypersons during simulated dispatcher assisted CPR and after CPR training

Acta Anaesthesiologica Scandinavica, 2017
BackgroundDispatcher assisted cardiopulmonary resuscitation (DA‐CPR) increase the rate of bystander CPR. The aim of the study was to compare the performance of DA‐CPR and attainable skills following CPR training between young and elderly laypersons.MethodsVolunteer laypersons (young: 18–40 years; elderly: > 65 years) participated. Single rescuer CPR

The impact of dispatcher-assisted CPR and prior bystander CPR training on neurologic outcomes in out-of-hospital cardiac arrest: a multicenter study

Resuscitation
The objective of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of dispatcher-assisted cardiopulmonary resuscitation (DA-CPR) among laypersons, focusing on its impact on those with and without prior CPR training in out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) cases.This prospective multicenter observational study included 42 emergency hospitals participating in

Dispatcher-assisted telephone CPR: a qualitative study exploring how dispatchers perceive their experiences

Resuscitation, 2002
To investigate how emergency medical dispatchers (EMDs) perceive their experience of identifying suspected cardiac arrests (CA), and offer and provide instructions in cardiopulmonary resuscitation via telephone (t-CPR).A qualitative method using the phenomenographic design where 10 EMDs were approached for semi-structured interviews.Perception in ...
