Summary

This study examines whether volunteers alerted by a smartphone app can improve survival for people who have a cardiac arrest outside the hospital. Researchers will compare outcomes for about 5,200 adults who either did or did not receive help from these first responders. The goal is to see if faster help from nearby citizens leads to more people surviving at 30 days, 6 months, and 1 year.

Who is studied

Adult patients (≥18 years) with confirmed out-of-hospital cardiac arrest managed by the regional emergency medical services (118 system) in Emilia-Romagna between 1 January 2018 and 31 December 2025. Patients are identified through EMS dispatch databases and national health information systems and include cases in which a First Responder was activated via the DAE RespondER system. The study population reflects a real-world, unselected cohort of OHCA patients treated within an integrated regional emergency care system.
