“…This shows how small public awareness is of the mentioned devices. Similar conclusions were reached in the surveys by Christ et al [15]. AEDs, as well as mobile applications, are programmed to help the rescuer follow the CPR + AED algorithm.…”

Each year in Europe there are about 350 thousand deaths recorded, following sudden cardiac arrest (SCA). To reduce this number, new methods are being looked for to assist non-medical people in CPR. The objective of this contribution is to compare the efficacy of cardio-pulmonary resuscitation and its compliance with the BLS algorithm in persons showing no medical background, using generally available means of support.

“…The lack of knowledge among members of the public regarding AED use was a key finding of this review. This was particularly evident in the studies of Schober et al, 29 Bogle et al, 26 Christ et al, 24 and Taniguchi et al 27 Schober et al 29 found that only a minority of individuals had sufficient knowledge and would be willing to use an AED. Only 61 of the 1018 train passengers surveyed spontaneously indicated that they would consider AED use when confronted with a SCA.…”

Introduction: Sudden cardiac arrest (SCA) causes up to 5000 deaths each year in Ireland. 70% of cardiac arrests in Ireland occur out of hospital. Global incidence of out-of-hospital SCA ranges from 20-140/100000 people, and survival ranges from 2%-11%. The large increase in Automated External Defibrillator (AED) distribution and availability has led to an increasing interest into layperson recognition of and response to SCA.Objectives: The purpose of this paper is to systematically review previously conducted studies relating to knowledge, understanding and attitudes among laypersons in relation to the use of an AED in the event of a SCA. This review aims to assess and critically appraise the existing literature relating to this topic on a global level in order to identify future research directions with an aim to improving layperson recognition of and response to SCA.Methods: Studies were identified through an electronic database search in combination with expert recommendation. A three-step selection process was applied to determine applicability to this review.Results: Ten studies were reviewed and critiqued. Three themes emerged:Knowledge and understanding of the concept of an AED.Willingness to use an AED in the event of a SCA.Reasons for unwillingness to use an AED in the event of a SCA.Results were compiled and discussed.Conclusion: There is a paucity of literature relating to layperson understanding of AED function and use. The evidence suggests only a minority of laypersons would be confident or willing to use an AED in the event of a nearby SCA. The extent to which an educational intervention could impact upon layperson understanding and confidence in use of an AED is poorly understood at present.Keywords: AED; layperson; public; understanding; attitudes; knowledge; awareness.

“…Die Schwierigkeit besteht darin, die Bevölkerung hierzu zu motivieren[4]. Vielleicht kann die Motivation der Laien in Deutschland jedoch dadurch gesteigert werden, dass ihnen vermittelt wird, dass ihre Erste-Hilfe-Kenntnisse und dabei insbesondere die Kenntnisse in der Reanimation, am ehesten den eigenen (Ehe-)Partner, Verwandte und Freunde vor dem plötzlichen Herztod schützen und erst an letzter Stelle unbekannte Fremde.Möglicherweise werden die Ergebnisse unserer Studie dadurch beeinflusst, dass wir lediglich diejenigen außerklinischen HerzKreislauf-Stillstände untersuchen konnten, die in unsere Klinik gebracht wurden.…”
