In plain words

What the trial is, and whether it could suit you

Out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) affects 275,000 people in Europe every year. In Italy alone, 50,000 people experience OHCA annually, with only 9% surviving. Half of the survivors suffer severe brain damage. Immediate CPR and defibrillation by bystanders before the ambulance arrives can save lives, but often, CPR starts only when the ambulance gets there. Additionally, half of all OHCAs occur when the person is alone, causing delays in recognizing the emergency, calling for help, and starting lifesaving actions. Effective chest compressions and defibrillation are crucial but are often not done correctly or are not customized for each patient. Current guidelines recommend the same approach for everyone, which doesn't consider individual needs. To tackle these issues, we plan to develop artificial intelligence (AI) algorithms, smartphone apps, and new devices. Our main goal is to cre
