Sponsor's own description

Out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) remains a time-critical emergency where early cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) and timely defibrillation using an automated external defibrillator (AED) are key to improving survival and neurological outcomes. Although Taipei has implemented dispatch-assisted CPR, delays remain between arrest recognition and AED application due to manpower and policy limitations. International guidelines, including the Global Resuscitation Alliance's ten steps to improve OHCA outcomes, recommend involving police as first responders. Prior studies from the United States and Switzerland demonstrate that police often arrive before emergency medical services (EMS), underscoring their potential role in reducing response times. However, police have not been officially included in OHCA dispatch systems in any region of Taiwan. This study aims to evaluate the willingness of police officers in New Taipei City to participate in prehospital resuscitation through a structured questionnaire. The survey also explores perceived facilitators and barriers to involvement. Findings will inform future training programs and strategies to promote police integration into prehospital emergency response systems, with the ultimate goal of improving OHCA survival rates.
