Barriers to cardiac arrest recognition: The impact of symptom interpretation on the effectiveness of dispatcher instructions [PDF]
Introduction: The outcome of out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) critically depends on the early initiation of cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR). The emergency medical service (EMS) dispatcher plays a vital role as the "first responder," providing ...

Senior citizens as rescuers: Is reduced knowledge the reason for omitted lay-resuscitation-attempts? Results from a representative survey with 2004 interviews. [PDF]
Resuscitation (CPR) provided by a bystander prior to the arrival of the emergency services is a beneficial factor for surviving a cardiac arrest (CA). Our registry-based data show, that older patients receive bystander-CPR less frequently.
