| Popis: | OBJECTIVES The aim of this study was to describe the characteristics of out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) in different workplaces, their management, and the survival rate. METHODS A post hoc analysis included all the OHCA cases that occurred at the workplace and were listed in the Fire Brigade of Paris database registry (2010 to 2014). Utstein-style variables, survival, and types of workplace were analyzed. RESULTS The study included 298 OHCA cases, mostly young (44% between 18 and 50 years), male (86%), and nontraumatic (86%). Differences in the survival chain were found to be related to the types of work location: bystander cardiopulmonary resuscitation was performed in 0% to 55% of cases, and workplace-automated external defibrillators were used in 0% to 20% of cases. Long-term survival without major incapacity was 0% to 23%. CONCLUSIONS The characteristics of OHCA differ as a function of the type of workplace. |
