12 – Effectiveness of Video-assisted Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation

“Effectiveness of Video-assisted Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation”

About: Interventional study to investigate if video-assisted CPR is more effective than telephone-assisted or not-instructed CPR. By adding video to the call the EMS dispatchers can guide bystanders on how to perform CPR.

“Do Video Calls Improve Dispatcher-Assisted First Aid for Infants with Foreign Body Airway Obstruction? A Randomized Controlled Trial/Simulation Study”

About: An interventional study performed to assess if video calls could improve the results of foreign body airway obstruction (FBAO) by bystanders on infants. One group in the study got to perform first aid with video call and one group with audio call, which were both instructed by the medical emergency dispatcher.
