Out-of-hospital cardiac arrest in alpine and urban terrain: a five-year retrospective analysis of 11,315 Austrian HEMS missions

ROSC was somewhat more common in alpine cases at first glance, reflecting case mix. Yet once rhythm and other factors were considered, alpine missions required more time on scene and this delay translated into lower odds of ROSC. Terrain-specific strategies-routine mCPR devices access, structured hypothermia management, and improved logistics-are needed to improve outcomes in these settings.

Abstract

ROSC was somewhat more common in alpine cases at first glance, reflecting case mix. Yet once rhythm and other factors were considered, alpine missions required more time on scene and this delay translated into lower odds of ROSC. Terrain-specific strategies-routine mCPR devices access, structured hypothermia management, and improved logistics-are needed to improve outcomes in these settings.
