DOI: 10.1016/j.resuscitation.2017.08.220
Abstract: INTRODUCTION Optimizing placement of Automated External Defibrillators (AED) can increase survival after an out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA). Using postal collection boxes (PCB) as locations for AEDs could potentially enhance accessibility and streamline maintenance. In this… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.resuscitation.2019.01.031
Abstract: INTRODUCTION There is no standard for categorizing reasons for death in those who achieve return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC) after cardiac arrest but die before hospital discharge. Categorization is important for comparing outcomes across studies,… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.resuscitation.2019.02.015
Abstract: AIM The out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) and cardiac arrest hospital prognosis (CAHP) scores were developed for early neuroprognostication after OHCA. Calculation of both scores requires estimation of the no-flow interval, which may be imprecise. We… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.resuscitation.2019.02.022
Abstract: BACKGROUND Survival from out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) is improved when public access defibrillators are used. Areas of socioeconomic deprivation may have higher rates of OHCA and thus a greater demand for public access defibrillators. We… read more here.
