Article Synopsis
- The study investigates how COVID-19 may impact the rates and outcomes of out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) cases in Seattle and King County from 2018 to 2021.
- It compares data from the prepandemic (2018-2019) and pandemic (2020-2021) periods to assess changes in OHCA incidence and survival rates.
- Findings show a 19% increase in OHCA cases during the pandemic, with only 6.2% of those treated by EMS testing positive for COVID-19 at the time of arrest, indicating that factors beyond SARS-CoV-2 might be influencing OHCA trends.
