Abstract
Out-of-hospital cardiac arrest is a major public health issue accounting for approximately 200 000 deaths per year in the United States.1 Despite more than 2 decades of evidence demonstrating significant benefits from early cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) and defibrillation, wide variation in CPR training, bystander and first-responder intervention, and survival after out-of-hospital cardiac arrest remains.2-5Keywords
