Variations in Out-of-Hospital Cardiac Arrest Resuscitation Performance and Outcomes in Ohio
The ROSC and survival after out-of-hospital cardiac arrest varied across EMS agencies and hospitals in Ohio. Top-performing EMS agencies exhibited unique demographic characteristics, used less mechanical CPR, and were more successful in airway placement. These variations in OHCA care and outcomes can indicate opportunities for system improvement in Ohio.
