Abstract

Creating a system of care for out of hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) is not a simple task. It must be a multifaceted approach that encompasses a variety of teams from call takers, to bystanders, to emergency medical service (EMS) personnel, to hospital personnel. All of these teams must line up and perform their individual task successfully to yield a survivor of OHCA and return a loved one to his or her family. Various best practices have been collected and are highlighted here. Implementation of these concepts in one's system of care for OHCA will not be easy but will result in a greater number of survivors returning to their family in the community.
