Background The Institute of Medicine has called for actions to understand and target sex‐related differences in care and outcomes for out‐of‐hospital cardiac arrest patients. We assessed changes in bystander and first‐responder interventions and outcomes for males versus females after statewide efforts to improve cardiac arrest care. Methods and Results We identified out‐of‐hospital cardiac arrests from North Carolina (2010–2014) through the CARES (Cardiac Arrest Registry to Enhance Survival) registry. Outcomes for men versus women were examined through multivariable logistic regression analyses adjusted for (1) nonmodifiable factors (age, witnessed status, and initial heart rhythm) and (2) nonmodifiable plus modifiable factors (bystander cardiopulmonary resuscitation and defibrillation before emergency medical services), including interactions between sex and time (ie, year and year2). Of 8100 patients, 38.1% were women. From 2010 to 2014, there was an increase in bystander cardiopulmonary resuscitation (men, 40.5%–50.6%; women, 35.3%–51.8%; P for each |
