EXPERIMENTAL: Smartphone video-assisted ALS & Conventional CPR
In study period, using this video medical control, high-quality CPR, cardiac arrest rhythm confirmation, defibrillation, proper drug administration instructions, advanced airway insertion, etc. are performed. The medical director then decides on patient transfer if the asystole and pulseless electrical activity findings are persistent even after more than 20-minutes of ALS. The conventional CPR is Basic life support only in the automatic external defibrillator (AED) mode 5-10 minutes at the scene, are not allowed to stop resuscitation at the scene unless there is a return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC) or pre-hospital cardiac arrest patient has already been transported to a hospital. |
As an preparation for this study, personnel training in mock advanced life support (ALS) simulation including the smartphone video call methodology was conducted.
The smartphones were not separately purchased or produced; commercially available smartphones already owned by the emergency medical service (EMS) personnel and medical directors were used.
To facilitate the smartphone video call between the medical director and the EMS personnel and to prevent the caregivers or others nearby from hearing the conversation, Bluetooth earphone sets were used.
Data were collected using the cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) recording form uploaded in SNS which consisted of EMS personnel and medical directors, and the quality of CPR was evaluated
