Machine learning can support dispatchers to better and faster recognize out-of-hospital cardiac arrest during emergency calls: A retrospective study

Fast recognition of out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) by dispatchers might increase survival. The aim of this observational study of emergency calls was to (1) examine whether a machine learning framework (ML) can increase the proportion of calls recognizing OHCA within the first minute compared with dispatchers, (2) present the performance of ML with different false positive rate (FPR) settings, (3) examine call characteristics influencing OHCA recognition.
