Abstract:
Objective:To investigate the current situation of telephone cardiopulmonary resuscitation (T-CPR) in China, and analyze the reasons for the low implementation rate of T-CPR.Methods:This was a multicenter cross-sectional survey. Twenty cities were selected from six geographical regions of China by convenient sampling method. Anonymous online electronic questionnaires were sent to emergency medical service staffs in each city. All respondents were divided into the routine T-CPR group and control group. Student's t test and Chi-square test were used to analyze the difference between groups. Multivariate logistic regression was used to analyze the influencing factors of T-CPR. Results:⑴A total of 1 191 questionnaires were collected. 80.94% of respondents knew T-CPR. Nine hundred and sixty respondents, who knew T-CPR and completed the questionnaires, were included in the study, and were divided into the routine T-CPR group ( n=401) and control group ( n=559). Nine hundred and thirty-nine (97.81%) responders believed that T-CPR should be implemented for cardiac arrest patients that could be confirmed by telephone.⑵Four hundred and one (41.77%) responders routinely implemented T-CPR. Among them, 237 (24.68%) responders always did and 164 (17.08%) responders often did. ⑶Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that male ( OR=1.787, 95% CI: 1.235-2.587, P=0.002), age ( OR=1.025, 95% CI: 1.004-1.047, P=0.020), clinical medicine background ( OR=2.926, 95% CI: 1.387-6.171, P =0.005), dispatcher ( OR=5.305, 95% CI: 3.463-8.126, P<0.01), using medical priority dispatch system (MPDS) system ( OR=1.941, 95% CI: 1.418-2.656, P<0.01), and T-CPR policy or procedure ( OR=3.879, 95% CI: 2.652-5.674, P<0.01) were favorable factors for T-CPR. ⑷The top three reasons for implementing T-CPR in the routine T-CPR group were that they had received T-CPR training (67.08%), believed that T-CPR could improve survival rate (63.59%), and had standard T-CPR process (63.09%). The top three reasons for not implementing T-CPR in the control group were that worrying about bystander compliance (42.04%), worrying about the quality of bystander cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) (38.28%), and worrying about medical dispute (36.14%). Conclusions:The awareness and implementation of T-CPR among emergency medical service staffs need to be improved. The implementation of T-CPR depend on telephone dispatchers with clinical medicine background, clear T-CPR policy, standardized operation procedure, and professional assistant tools. To improve the public's awareness of cardiac arrest and cardiopulmonary resuscitation, and to improve the supporting legal system are also conducive to the implementation of T-CPR.
