Impact of dispatcher-assisted bystander cardiopulmonary resuscitation on neurological outcomes in children with out-of-hospital cardiac arrests: a prospective, nationwide, population-based cohort study.

In adults with OHCA, dispatcher CPR instruction increased bystander CPR provision rates and showed a trend toward increased survival rates. 6 – 7 However, only a few studies have reported on the impact of dispatcher‐assisted bystander CPR on neurological outcomes for children with OHCA. 8 – 9 We investigated whether dispatcher CPR instruction for children with OHCA would increase the rate of bystander CPR provision and show an association with favorable neurological outcomes, in comparison to OHCA incidences in which no bystander provided CPR.
