    Abstract Intro: Medical drones are an emerging technology which may facilitate rapid treatment in time-sensitive emergencies. However, drones rely on lay rescuers, whose interactions with multipurpose medical drones have not been studied, and the optimal drone design remains unclear.
    Methods: We conducted 24 simulations of adult out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) and pediatric anaphylaxis with a prototype drone equipped with spoken and visual cues and a multipurpose medical kit. 24 layperson volunteers encountered one of the two scenarios and were supported through administering treatment by a simulated 911 dispatcher. Bystander-drone interactions were evaluated via a convergent parallel mixed methods approach using surveys, video event review, and semi-structured interviews.
    Results: 83% (20/24) of participants voiced comfort interacting with the drone. 96% (23/24) were interested in future interaction. Participants appreciated the drone's spoken instructions but found visual cues confusing. Participants retrieved the medical kit from the drone in a mean of 5 seconds (range 2-14) of drone contact; 79% (19/24) found this step easy or very easy. The medical kit's layered design caused difficulty in retrieving appropriate equipment. Participants expressed a wide range of reactions to the unique drone design.
    Conclusions: Laypeople can effectively and comfortably interact with a medical drone with a novel design. Feedback on design elements will result in further refinements and valuable insights for other drone designers. A multipurpose medical kit created more challenges and indicates the need for further refinement to facilitate use of the equipment.

    Abstract Objective: Intranasal medications have been proposed as adjuncts to out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) care. We sought to quantify the effects of intranasal medication administration (INMA) in OHCA workflows.
    Methods: We conducted separate randomized OHCA simulation trials with lay rescuers (LRs) and first responders (FRs). Participants were randomized to groups performing hands-only cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR)/automated external defibrillator with or without INMA during the second analysis phase. Time to compression following the second shock (CPR2) was the primary outcome and compression quality (chest compression rate (CCR) and fraction (CCF)) was the secondary outcome. We fit linear regression models adjusted for CPR training in the LR group and service years in the FR group.
    Results: Among LRs, INMA was associated with a significant increase in CPR2 (mean diff. 44.1 s, 95% CI: 14.9, 73.3), which persisted after adjustment (
    Conclusions: INMA in LR resuscitation was associated with diminished resuscitation performance. INMA by FR did not impede key times or quality.
