Background Outcomes of patients from out‐of‐hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) vary widely globally because of differences in prehospital systems of emergency care. National efforts had gone into improving OHCA outcomes in Singapore in recent years including community and prehospital initiatives. We aimed to document the impact of implementation of a national 5‐year Plan for prehospital emergency care in Singapore on OHCA outcomes from 2011 to 2016. Methods and Results Prospective, population‐based data of OHCA brought to Emergency Departments were obtained from the Pan‐Asian Resuscitation Outcomes Study cohort. The primary outcome was Utstein (bystander witnessed, shockable rhythm) survival‐to‐discharge or 30‐day postarrest. Mid‐year population estimates were used to calculate age‐standardized incidence. Multivariable logistic regression was performed to identify prehospital characteristics associated with survival‐to‐discharge across time. A total of 11 465 cases qualified for analysis. Age‐standardized incidence increased from 26.1 per 100 000 in 2011 to 39.2 per 100 000 in 2016. From 2011 to 2016, Utstein survival rates nearly doubled from 11.6% to 23.1% (P=0.006). Overall survival rates improved from 3.6% to 6.5% (P |
