Successful dispatcher-assisted CPR and outcomes after out-of-hospital cardiac arrest: an age-specific nationwide study.

Dispatcher-assisted cardiopulmonary resuscitation (dispatcher-assisted cardiopulmonary resuscitation) is an essential strategy for increasing bystander CPR and improving outcomes after out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (out-of-hospital cardiac arrest).

This study evaluated the association between successful dispatcher-assisted cardiopulmonary resuscitation and clinical outcomes after out-of-hospital cardiac arrest in adult and pediatric patients and assessed whether age modified these associations.
