Article Synopsis
- This study is the first to examine out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) in Bahrain, revealing an annual incidence of about 21 cases per 100,000 people, predominantly affecting older males.
- The research found that most cases were witnessed and occurred at home, but bystander CPR and AED usage were significantly low, leading to poor survival rates.
- The results highlight the urgent need for improved community training in CPR and AED usage, better EMS evaluation, and the establishment of an OHCA registry to enhance outcomes.
