Monitoring of in-hospital cardiac arrest events with the focus on Automated External Defibrillators – a retrospective observational study
2015
Background
Patients with cardiac arrest have lower survival rates, when resuscitation performance is low. In In-hospital settings the first responders on scene are usually nursing staff without rhythm analysing skills. In such cases Automated External Defibrillators (AED) might help guiding resuscitation performance. At the Wuerzburg University Hospital (Germany) an AED-program was initiated in 2007.
Aim of the presented study was to monitor the impact of Automated External Defibrillators on the management of in-hospital cardiac arrest events.
