Mathematical optimization of automated external defibrillator (AED) placement has demonstrated potential to improve survival of out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA). Existing models mostly aim to improve accessibility based on coverage radius and do not account for detailed impact of delayed defibrillation on survival. We aimed to predict OHCA survival based on time to defibrillation and developed an AED placement model to directly maximize the expected survival rate.We stratified OHCAs occurring in Singapore (2010-2017) based on time to defibrillation and developed a regression model to predict the Utstein survival rate. We then developed a novel AED placement model, the maximum expected survival rate (MESR) model. We compared the performance of MESR with a maximum coverage model developed for Canada that was shown to be generalizable to other settings (Denmark). The survival gain of MESR was assessed through 10-fold cross-validation for placement of 20 to 1000 new AEDs in Singapore. Statistical analysis was performed using χDuring the study period, 15,345 OHCAs occurred. The power-law approximation with RWe developed a novel AED placement model based on the impact of time to defibrillation on OHCA outcomes. Mathematical optimization can improve OHCA survival. |
