Drones delivering automated external defibrillators for out-of-hospital cardiac arrest: A scoping review.
Resusc Plus
January 2025
Emergency Medical Services, Capital Region of Denmark, Ballerup, Denmark.
Unlabelled: Out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) remains a critical health concern, where prompt access to automated external defibrillators (AEDs) significantly improves survival. This scoping review broadly investigates the feasibility and impact of dronedelivered AEDs for OHCA response.
Methods: PubMed, Cochrane, and Web of Science were searched from inception to August 6, 2024, with eligibility broadly including empirical data.
Severity of metabolic derangement predicts survival after out-of-hospital cardiac arrest and the likelihood of benefiting from extracorporeal life support.

Department of Emergency Medicine, Samsung Medical Center, Sungkyunkwan University School of Medicine, Seúl, República de Corea. Department of Digital Health, SAIHST, Sungkyunkwan University, Seúl, República de Corea.
Objective: To develop a Metabolic Derangement Score (MDS) based on parameters available after initial testing and assess the score's ability to predict survival after out-of hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) and the likely usefulness of extracorporeal life support (ECLS).
Methods: A total of 5100 cases in the Korean Cardiac Arrest Research Consortium registry were included. Patients' mean age was 67 years, and 69% were men.
Prehospital critical care beyond advanced life support for out-of-hospital cardiac arrest: A systematic review.
Resusc Plus
January 2025
Warwick Clinical Trials Unit, Warwick Medical School, University of Warwick, Coventry, UK.
Aim: To assess the clinical outcomes of patients with out-of-hospital cardiac arrest attended by prehospital critical care teams compared to non-critical care teams.
Methods: This review was prospectively registered with PROSPERO and the eligibility criteria followed a PICOST framework for ILCOR systematic reviews. Prehospital critical care was defined as any provider with enhanced clinical competencies beyond standard advanced life support algorithms and dedicated dispatch to critically ill patients.
Teaching high quality paediatric basic life support to laypeople: The development and evaluation of a virtual simulation game.
Resusc Plus
January 2025
Department of Paediatrics, Division of Paediatric Critical Care, CHEO, 401 Smyth Rd, Ottawa, Ontario K1H 8L1, Canada.
Background: Self-directed training has been recognized as a reasonable alternative to traditional instructor-led formats to teach laypeople Basic Life Support (BLS). Virtual tools can facilitate high-quality self-directed resuscitation education; however, their role in teaching paediatric BLS remains unclear due to limited empiric evaluation and suboptimal design of existing tools.
Aim: We describe the development and evaluation of a virtual simulation game (VSG) designed to teach high-quality paediatric BLS using a self-directed, online format with integrated deliberate practice and feedback.
Characteristics and outcomes of out-of-hospital-cardiac-arrest in rural and suburban areas of Sindh, Pakistan: A cross-sectional study.
Resusc Plus
January 2025
Centre of Excellence for Trauma & Emergencies, The Aga Khan University, Karachi, Pakistan.
Background: Despite extensive research on OHCA in urban centres worldwide, there is a significant gap in knowledge regarding these events in less urbanized regions, especially in Low-Middle-Income Countries (LMICs).
Aim: To determine the characteristics and outcomes of adult out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) in rural and suburban districts of Sindh, Pakistan.
Methods: Data of OHCA patients (>18 years) was collected retrospectively from January 2020 to December 2022, from the medical records of district and tehsil hospitals of the province of Sindh Data analysis was performed using the Statistical Package Software for the Social Sciences (SPSS) Statistics 29.
