A Proposal to Make Your City the Best Place in the World to be if you have a Sudden Cardiac Arrest HeartSafe Community
Slide 2-

HeartSafe Community Sudden Death Syndrome 460,000 deaths per year in U.S. 20-25% arrive at hospital with pulse
Slide 3-

HeartSafe Community Chain of Survival in Sudden Cardiac Arrest Early Access To Care Early CPR Early Defibrillation Early and Expert Advanced Life Support
Slide 4-

HeartSafe Community Time To Defibrillation Survival is inversely proportional to time to defibrillation
Slide 5-

HeartSafe Community How can we favorably impact survival from SCA? Death from sudden cardiac arrest (SCA) can be significantly reduced if cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) and defibrillation are administered before emergency medical services (EMS) arrive.
Slide 6-

HeartSafe Community How can we favorably impact survival from SCA? Increase citizen CPR training Increase AED locations Establish cardiac arrest registry Increase public awareness of the need for early EMS access, early CPR and early defibrillation Promote and support of the treatment of Sudden Cardiac Arrest
Slide 7-

HeartSafe Community Increase citizen CPR training Bystander CPR proven to impact survival from SCA Citizen-initiated CPR is strongly and independently associated with a better health-related quality of life in adult out-of-hospital cardiac arrest patients who survived to 1 year, according to a substudy of the Ontario Prehospital Advanced Life Support Study (OPALS), the largest prehospital cardiac arrest study ever conducted. In a study done in Oakland County, Michigan by Swor RA, et al, in assessing whether bystander CPR (BCPR) on collapse affects initial rhythm and outcome in 722 patients with witnessed, unmonitored out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA), they found that patients who receive BCPR are more often found in VT/VF and have an increased rate of live discharge, with controls for age and response and definitive care intervals HeartSafe Community

HeartSafe Community Increase AED Locations Public Access Defibrillation PAD trial The PAD Trial trained approximately 20,000 volunteer rescuers at 24 sites in the U.S. and Canada. Each site identified between 20 and 70 community units with a potential for out-of-hospital cardiac arrests, such as apartment complexes, shopping centers, senior centers, office buildings, and sports venues. Each study unit was randomly assigned to train volunteers in CPR only (recognition of cardiac arrest symptoms, instruction to call 911 for EMS support, and performance of CPR) or in CPR and the use of an AED. Defibrillators were distributed to the sites offering training in the use of an AED. All volunteers received 2 to 4 hours of initial training and most were retrained one or more times during the study. HeartSafe Community

HeartSafe Community Increase AED Locations Public Access Defibrillation PAD trial The majority of victims in both groups were men in their late 60s or early 70s. Increased survival of cardiac arrest victims was primarily found in the CPR plus AED "public" sites — rather than in the residential locations. The number of survivors of sudden cardiac arrest markedly increased when the victims were helped by community volunteers trained to perform not only CPR but also to use an automated external defibrillator (AED). Over an average 21.5 months, there were 29 cardiac arrest survivors to hospital discharge in the group assigned to CPR plus AED compared to 15 survivors in the group assigned to CPR only.

Slide 10-

HeartSafe Community Increase AED Locations Studies have shown that on casinos and airplanes that have installed automated external defibrillators (AEDs) and trained people to use them, people who suffer SCA there have a greater than 50 percent chance of being resuscitated and surviving to hospital discharge.

HeartSafe Community Chicago O’Hare Airport Unique Signage Easy Visibility Easy Access by Public and Employees “One minute to an AED from anywhere in the building” First 2 Months of Operation: 8 Uses, 7 Saves 2 Uses by Laypersons
Slide 14-

HeartSafe Community Establish Cardiac Arrest Registry The objective of the Cardiac Arrest Registry would be to establish a comprehensive database from which the survival rate from out-of-hospital cardiac arrest can be calculated. This registry would track all out-of-hospital cardiac arrests and would provide outcome data to provide a means of comparing survival rates in your region with other areas of the USA and to serve as a base upon which future therapies may be evaluated. A cardiac arrest registry will allow us to know which buildings and locations were more likely to experience cardiac arrest events; and could make informed decisions about deployment of automated external defibrillators (AEDs).

HeartSafe Community Increase public awareness Public education on the importance of: Learning and maintaining skills in CPR Considering the implementation of AEDs in public and private locations Encourage early access of 911 for SCA HeartSafe Community
