dc.description.abstract |
The survival rates of out of hospital cardiac arrest victims in Lebanon are much lower than those seen internationally. In Lebanon, there are no national guidelines for resuscitation in outpatient settings. In this study, we examined the cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) practices of paramedic personnel, their attitudes about resuscitation and the problems they face. We also elicited suggestions for improving practice to inform the development of national guidelines that are in line with international standards yet at the same time fit the conditions in Lebanon. |
