Abstract:
More than any other circumstances, life-threatening emergencies require rapid and appropriate management. Public involvement is, in many cases, essential for optimal outcome. The victim, a relative or a bystander, if they do the right thing, can facilitate emergency service intervention. Adult sudden cardiac death is one area where public involvement has been particularly encouraged. Based on this experience, the aim of this article is to examine possible extension to other life-threatening emergencies, as well as the consequences of this involvement in terms of public health and community awareness.
