A centralized system for providing dispatcher assisted CPR instructions to 9-1-1 callers at multiple municipal public safety answering points
2019, ResuscitationCitation Excerpt :Others choose to use locally developed systems for instructing callers in CPR. The most notable of these community-developed systems is the one used in Seattle, Washington, where significant research on dispatcher CPR has been conducted.8–12 Still other communities do not offer any pre-arrival instructions.
Dispatcher assisted CPR: Is it still important to continue teaching lay bystander CPR?
2017, American Journal of Emergency MedicineCitation Excerpt :The rate of bystander CPR varies greatly among communities from 10% to 65% [13]. To improve this situation in the early 1970s, the idea of Dispatcher-assisted CPR (DACPR) or telephone CPR was first conceived [14]. International Guidelines for Resuscitation 2015 [15] recommend DACPR because it improves bystander CPR rates [16-20], increases the number of chest compressions delivered [20] and improves patient outcomes following out-of hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) [6–9,15,21–23].
