Backgrounds: The impact of off-duty hours mechanical thrombectomy on outcomes remains a subject of controversy. The impacts of off-duty hours on procedures are influenced by various factors, but the most critical one is the time delay in initiating the procedure after the patient's arrival at the emergency room. Recently, a report suggested that the impact of time delay on post-procedural outcomes is evident in patients who arrive at the emergency room within 6 h of symptom onset, referred to as the "early window.

The characteristics of an individual patient experiencing out-of-hospital cardiac arrest who recovered spontaneous circulation with the assistance of witnesses and paramedics were examined. The analysis of bystander cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) and the professional first aid efforts of paramedics in the pre-hospital environment is pivotal to enhancing the survival rate of out-of-hospital cardiac arrest patients. The data used in this study were extracted from the Korea Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (KCDC) nationally recognized statistics, Acute Heart Failure big data survey.

Methods: This single center, retrospective study included patients who were discharged from the ED and had subsequent positive blood cultures. Blood cultures were reviewed utilizing an algorithm previously approved and implemented by an interdisciplinary team in 2016.

Article Synopsis
- Geospatial smartphone applications are being used to gather community responses for out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA), but many activations may involve patients who aren’t actually experiencing cardiac arrest.
- A 3-year study in four U.S. communities tracked cases where this technology was activated for suspected OHCA, revealing that over half of the 1,023 non-arrest patients had various medical conditions like syncope and seizures.
- Common EMS interventions included placing IV lines and administering naloxone, suggesting that these non-arrest conditions could benefit from quicker care response times.
