CARES helps communities measure performance and identify how to improve cardiac arrest survival rates. By joining CARES, communities gain more than just access to information that will help them improve performance and save lives. They also contribute to one of the largest EMS registries in the world, and one of the few that also includes patient outcome information from hospitals. Those features enable CARES data to be used to conduct vital research that furthers our knowledge of cardiac arrest treatment and saves countless lives for years to come.
Bystander CPR is essential for survival in out-of-hospital cardiac arrests. New findings show survival rates drop sharply if CPR starts 10+ mins after collapse. Quick action can save lives!
Survival rates for out-of-hospital cardiac arrest improved after the pandemic but are still lower than pre-COVID levels. Disparities persist, especially in Black and Hispanic communities. The study highlights the need for improved CPR education and emergency care.
