The Utstein style, established in 1990 for out-of-hospital cardiac arrest reporting, has significantly impacted resuscitation science over 30 years. This format continues to evolve, aiming to improve patient care and outcomes globally.
Area of Science:
- Resuscitation Science
- Emergency Medicine
- Public Health
Background:
- The 1990 Utstein Abbey meeting established guidelines for uniform reporting of out-of-hospital cardiac arrest data.
- This paper reviews 30 years of the Utstein style's evolution and impact.
Purpose of the Study:
- To analyze the development and influence of the Utstein reporting format over three decades.
- To highlight the sustained impact of the Utstein style on resuscitation research and practice.
Main Methods:
- A systematic literature search was conducted to identify relevant publications.
- Studies included those from Utstein-style meetings and research utilizing the Utstein format.
Main Results:
- Thirty key outputs were identified, focusing on resuscitation structure, process, and outcome measures.
- These publications originated globally, spanning multiple medical disciplines.
- Some findings were disseminated through co-publication in various journals.
Conclusions:
- The 1990 Utstein Abbey meeting has profoundly influenced resuscitation science, implementation, and patient outcomes.
- The Utstein format's principles remain crucial for advancing resuscitation efforts.
- Future evolution of the Utstein format aims to further enhance patient care and survival rates.
