Abstract

The Global Resuscitation Alliance (GRA) was established in 2015 to improve survival for Out- of-Hospital Cardiac Arrest (OHCA) using the best practices developed by the Seattle Resuscitation Academy. However, these 10 programs were recommended in the context of developed Emergency Care Systems (ECS). Implementing these programs can be challenging for ECS at earlier stages of development. We aimed to explore barriers faced by developing ECS and to establish pre-requisites needed. We also developed a framework by which developing ECS may use to build their emergency response capability. A consensus meeting was held in Singapore on 1st-2nd August 2017. The 74 participants were key stakeholders from 26 countries, including Emergency Medical Services (EMS) directors, physicians and academics, and two Physicians who sit on the World Health Organisation (WHO) panel for development of Emergency Care Systems. Five discussion groups examined the chain of survival: community, dispatch, ambulance and hospital; a separate group considered perinatal resuscitation. Discussion points were voted upon to reach a consensus. The answers and discussion points from each groupwere classified into a table adapted from WHO's framework of development fo...Continue Reading
