Cardiac arrest during interfacility transport with emergency medical services: a preliminary nationwide cross-sectional study
Listen to this summary
The authors aimed to investigate the incidence and outcomes of out-of-hospital cardiac arrests (OHCA) witnessed by emergency medical services (EMS) during interfacility transport (IFT) across the United States. Their findings indicate that a higher level of EMS care, specifically critical care transport (CCT), is associated with improved rates of return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC) compared to basic and advanced life support, highlighting the critical role of patient triage and appropriate care during transport for high-risk patients.
