摘要
It has been assumed in the past that minimizing response time is an important goal in emergency medical services (EMS) systems planning. However, this assumption has yet to be proven. In this analysis, 525 cardiac arrest cases are examined and the relationship between response time and survival determined. Paramedic response time is confirmed to be related statistically to long and short term survival from ventricular fibrillation. © 1979.
