35 Manual versus semi-automatic rhythm analysis and defibrillation for out-of-hospital cardiac arrest

Conclusion Although SAED improved the time to first shock, this did not translate into higher rates of successful cardioversion or survival for OHCA patients. Advanced life support providers should be trained in a manual defibrillation protocol. Conflict of interest None declared. Funding None declared.
