摘要
Since 1985, it has become apparent that the key to survival from adult sudden cardiac death is prompt defibrillation. Any delay from the time of collapse to the initial countershock will decrease the likelihood of survival. It also has been determined that CPR performed by lay rescuers is not begun promptly and, once started, often is performed for more than one minute before the emergency medical services (EMS) system is accessed, which significantly delays the time to defibrillation. In adults, therefore, the rescuer should phone first to activate the EMS system before performing CPR. In the pediatric population, respiratory arrests are far more common than cardiac arrests. Therefore, a rescuer should perform one minute of rescue support before activating the EMS system (a concept termed phone fast). It is recognized that this change is dependent upon a national EMS system that is still evolving. It is hoped that this change to phone first and phone fast will provide an impetus for rapid development of the EMS infrastructure.
