Abstract

Background: Out-of-Hospital Cardiac Arrest (OHCA) in Singapore is historically associated with poor survival (3% survival-to-discharge) and low Bystander CPR (BCPR) rates (20.3%). This study evaluates the impact of a comprehensive Dispatcher-assisted CPR (DACPR) program on BCPR rates and OHCA outcomes in Singapore.
