    Abstract Background: In the chain of survival for Out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA), each component of care contributes to improve the prognosis of the patient with OHCA. The SARS-CoV-2 (COVID-19) pandemic potentially affected each part of care in the chain of survival. The aim of this study was to compare prehospital care, in-hospital treatment, and outcomes among OHCA patients before and after the COVID-19 pandemic.
    Methods: We analyzed data from a multicenter prospective study in Kanto area, Japan, named SOS-KANTO 2017. We enrolled patients who registered during the pre-pandemic period (September 2019 to December 2019) and the post-pandemic period (June 2020 to March 2021). The main outcome measures were 30-day mortality and the proportion of favorable outcomes at 1 month, and secondary outcome measures were changes in prehospital and in-hospital treatments between the pre- and post-pandemic periods.
    Results: There were 2015 patients in the pre-pandemic group, and 5023 in the post-pandemic group. The proportion of advanced airway management by emergency medical service (EMS) increased (p < 0.01), and EMS call-to-hospital time was prolonged (p < 0.01) in the post- versus pre-pandemic group. There were no differences between the groups in defibrillation, extracorporeal membrane oxygenation, or temperature control therapy (p = 0.43, p = 0.14, and p = 0.16, respectively). Survival rate at 1 month and favorable outcome rate at 1 month were lower (p = 0.01 and p < 0.01, respectively) in the post- versus pre-pandemic group.
    Conclusion: Survival rate and favorable outcome rate 1 month after return of spontaneous circulation of OHCA worsened, EMS response time was prolonged, and advanced airway management by EMS increased in the post- versus pre-pandemic group; however, most prehospital and in-hospital management did not change between pre- and post-COVID-19 pandemic.

    Abstract The coronavirus disease of 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic, directly and indirectly, affected the emergency medical care system and resulted in worse out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) outcomes and epidemiological features compared with those before the pandemic. This review compares the regional and temporal features of OHCA prognosis and epidemiological characteristics. Various databases were searched to compare the OHCA outcomes and epidemiological characteristics during the COVID-19 pandemic with before the pandemic. During the COVID-19 pandemic, survival and favorable neurological outcome rates were significantly lower than before. Survival to hospitalization, return of spontaneous circulation, endotracheal intubation, and use of an automated external defibrillator (AED) decreased significantly, whereas the use of a supraglottic airway device, the incidence of cardiac arrest at home, and response time of emergency medical service (EMS) increased significantly. Bystander CPR, unwitnessed cardiac arrest, EMS transfer time, use of mechanical CPR, and in-hospital target temperature management did not differ significantly. A subgroup analysis of the studies that included only the first wave with those that included the subsequent waves revealed the overall outcomes in which the epidemiological features of OHCA exhibited similar patterns. No significant regional differences between the OHCA survival rates in Asia before and during the pandemic were observed, although other variables varied by region. The COVID-19 pandemic altered the epidemiologic characteristics, survival rates, and neurological prognosis of OHCA patients.

    Abstract Background: Out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) in children is a critical condition with a poor prognosis. After the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic developed, the epidemiology and clinical characteristics of the pediatric emergency department (PED) visits have changed. This study aimed to analyze the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on pediatric OHCA in the PED.
    Methods: From January 2018 to September 2021, we retrospectively collected data of children (18 years or younger) with a definite diagnosis of OHCA admitted to the PED. Patient data studied included demographics, pre-/in-hospital information, treatment modalities; and outcomes of interest included sustained return of spontaneous circulation (SROSC) and survival to hospital-discharge (STHD). These were analyzed and compared between the periods before and after the COVID-19 pandemic.
    Results: A total of 97 patients with OHCA (68 boys and 29 girls) sent to the PED were enrolled in our study. Sixty cases (61.9%) occurred in the pre-pandemic period and 37 during the pandemic. The most common age group was infants (40.2%) (
    Conclusion: During the COVID-19 pandemic, children with OHCA had a significantly lower rate of SROSC and STHD than that in the pre-pandemic period. The COVID-19 pandemic has changed the nature of PED visits and has affected factors related to ROSC and STHD in pediatric OHCA.

    Abstract Background: Improving out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) prognosis within the working-age population is important, but no studies have investigated the effects of COVID-19 pandemic specifically on the working-age population with OHCAs. We aimed to determine the association between the 2020 COVID-19 pandemic and OHCA outcomes and bystander resuscitation efforts among the working-age population.
    Methods: Prospectively collected nationwide, population-based records concerning 166 538 working-age individuals (men, 20-68 years; women, 20-62 years) with OHCA between 2017 and 2020 were assessed. We compared characteristics and outcome differences of the arrests between three prepandemic years (2017-2019) and the pandemic year 2020. The primary outcome was neurologically favourable 1-month survival (cerebral performance category 1 or 2). Secondary outcomes were bystander cardiopulmonary resuscitation (BCPR), dispatcher-assisted instruction for cardiopulmonary resuscitation (DAI-CPR), bystander-provided defibrillation (public access defibrillation (PAD)) and 1-month survival. We examined variations in bystander resuscitation efforts and outcomes among pandemic phase and regional classifications.
    Results: Among 149 300 OHCA cases, 1-month survival (2020, 11.2%; 2017-2019, 11.1% (crude OR (cOR) 1.00, 95% CI 0.97 to 1.05)) and 1-month neurologically favourable survival (7.3%-7.3% (cOR 1.00, 95% CI 0.96 to 1.05)) were unchanged; however, the neurologically favourable 1-month survival rate decreased in 12 of the most COVID-19-affected prefectures (7.2%-7.8% (cOR 0.90, 95% CI 0.85 to 0.96)), whereas it increased in 35 other prefectures (7.5%-6.6% (cOR 1.15, 95% CI 1.07 to 1.23)). Favourable outcomes decreased for OHCAs of presumed cardiac aetiology (10.3%-10.9% (cOR 0.94, 95% CI 0.90 to 0.99)) but increased for OHCAs of non-cardiac aetiology (2.5%-2.0% (cOR 1.27, 95% CI 1.12 to 1.44)). BCPR provision increased from 50.7% of arrests prepandemic to 52.3% (crude OR 1.07, 95% CI 1.04 to 1.09). Compared with 2017-2019, home-based OHCAs in 2020 increased (64.8% vs 62.3% (crude OR 1.12, 95% CI 1.09 to 1.14)), along with DAI-CPR attempts (59.5% vs 56.6% (cOR 1.13, 95% CI 1.10 to 1.15)) and multiple calls to determine a destination hospital (16.4% vs 14.5% (cOR 1.16, 95% CI 1.12 to 1.20)). PAD use decreased from 4.0% to 3.7% but only during the state of emergency period (7 April-24 May 2020) and in prefectures significantly affected by COVID-19.
    Conclusions: Reviewing automated external defibrillator (AED) locations and increasing BCPR through DAI-CPR may help prevent pandemic-associated decreases in survival rates for patients with cardiac OHCAs.

    Abstract Cardiopulmonary resuscitation in patients with out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) is associated with poor prognosis. Because the COVID-19 pandemic may have impacted mortality and morbidity, both on an individual level and the health care system as a whole, our purpose was to determine rates of OHCA survival since the onset of the SARS-CoV2 pandemic. We conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis to evaluate the influence of COVID-19 on OHCA survival outcomes according to the PRISMA guidelines. We searched the literature using PubMed, Scopus, Web of Science and Cochrane Central Register for Controlled Trials databases from inception to September 2021 and identified 1775 potentially relevant studies, of which thirty-one articles totaling 88,188 patients were included in this meta-analysis. Prehospital return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC) in pre-COVID-19 and COVID-19 periods was 12.3% vs. 8.9%, respectively (OR = 1.40; 95%CI: 1.06–1.87; p < 0.001). Survival to hospital discharge in pre- vs. intra-COVID-19 periods was 11.5% vs. 8.2% (OR = 1.57; 95%CI: 1.37–1.79; p < 0.001). A similar dependency was observed in the case of survival to hospital discharge with the Cerebral Performance Category (CPC) 1–2 (6.7% vs. 4.0%; OR = 1.71; 95%CI: 1.35–2.15; p < 0.001), as well as in the 30-day survival rate (9.2% vs. 6.4%; OR = 1.63; 95%CI: 1.13–2.36; p = 0.009). In conclusion, prognosis of OHCA is usually poor and even worse during COVID-19.

    Abstract Background: Out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) is a challenge for medical personnel, especially in the current COVID-19 pandemic, where medical personnel should perform resuscitation wearing full personal protective equipment. This study aims were to assess the characteristics and outcomes of adults who suffered an OHCA in the COVID-19 pandemic treated by emergency medical service (EMS) teams.
    Methods: All EMS-attended OHCA adults over than 18 years in the Polish EMS registry were analyzed. The retrospective EMS database was conducted. EMS interventions performed between March 1, and April 30, 2020 were retrospectively screened.
    Results: In the study period EMS operated 527 times for OHCA cases. The average age of patients with OHCA was 67.8 years. Statistically significantly more frequently men were involved (64.3%). 298 (56.6%) of all OHCA patients had resuscitation attempted by EMS providers. Among resuscitated patients, 73.8% were cardiac etiology. 9.4% of patients had return of spontaneous circulation, 27.2% of patients were admitted to hospital with ongoing chest compression. In the case of 63.4% cardiopulmonary resuscitation was ineffective and death was determined.
    Conclusions: The present study found that OHCA incidence rate in the Masovian population (central region of Poland) in March-April 2020 period was 12.2/100,000 adult inhabitants. Return of spontaneous circulation in EMS was observed only in 9.4% of resuscitated patients. The presence of shockable rhythms was associated with better prognosis. The prehospital mortality, even though it was high, did not differ from those reported by other studies.

    Abstract Objective: The authors performed several tree-based algorithms and an association rules mining as data mining tools to find useful determinants for neurological outcomes in out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) patients as well as to assess the effect of the first-aid and basic characteristics in the EMS system.
    Patients and methods: This was a retrospective cohort study. The outcome was Cerebral Performance Categories grading on OHCA patients at hospital discharge. Decision tree-based models inclusive of C4.5 algorithm, classification and regression tree and random forest were built to determine an OHCA patient's prognosis. Association rules mining was another data mining method which we used to find the combination of prognostic factors linked to the outcome.
    Results: The total of 3520 patients were included in the final analysis. The mean age was 67.53 (±18.4) year-old and 63.4% were men. To overcome the imbalance outcome issue in machine learning, the random forest has a better predictive ability for OHCA patients in overall accuracy (91.19%), weighted precision (88.76%), weighted recall (91.20%) and F1 score (0.9) by oversampling adjustment. Under association rules mining, patients who had any witness on the spot when encountering OHCA or who had ever ROSC during first-aid would be highly correlated with good CPC prognosis.
    Conclusion: The random forest has a better predictive ability for OHCA patients. This paper provides a role model applying several machine learning algorithms to the first-aid clinical assessment that will be promising combining with Artificial Intelligence for applying to emergency medical services.
