Cardiac Arrest in Residential Areas With Mobile First-responder Activation
Condition(s) studied
Investigational drug(s) / intervention(s)
Automated External Defibrillator (AED): Deployment of AEDs
Training in cardiopulmonary resuscitation and AED use: Residents will undergo 30-minute courses at study start and if needed during the trial period. During the course they will also be recruited as citizen responders
Activation of citizen responders: Citizen responders will be activated in case of suspected cardiac arrest through the heart runner app.
Study summary
The study aims to increase proportions of bystander defibrillation during out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (hereof referred to as cardiac arrest) in residential areas with a high density of cardiac arrests. The intervention consists of Automated External Defibrillators (AEDs) and residents' involvement in resuscitation through training and enrollment as citizen responders.
Eligibility
Primary outcome measure(s)
- Bystander defibrillation — Up to five years after implementation of the intervention
