Same Number of Cases, Better Results:<\/span><\/div>\n<div>The number of cases stayed the same (about 81 out of every 100,000 people), but more people survived thanks to better care.<\/div>\n<div><span> 3. More People Helping Early:<\/span><\/div>\n<div><span> \u2022 Bystander CPR increased from 55.5% to 73.9%.<\/span><\/div>\n<div><span> \u2022 Use of automated external defibrillators (AEDs) before EMS arrived increased from 2.2% to 10.9%.<\/span><\/div>\n<div><span> 4.

Why This Happened:<\/span><\/div>\n<div><span> \u2022 More people are trained to do CPR.<\/span><\/div>\n<div><span> \u2022 AEDs are used earlier.<\/span><\/div>\n<div><span> \u2022 Hospitals are using better treatments like cooling therapy and heart procedures.<\/span><\/div>\n<div><span> 6. What Doctors Say:<\/span><\/div>\n<div>Survival improved because both the community and hospitals are doing better.<\/div>\n<div><span> \u2022 The study shows how important early help and good hospital care are.<\/span><\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div><a href=\"https:\/\/www.medscape.com\/viewarticle\/cardiac-arrest-survival-july\">https:\/\/www.medscape.com\/viewarticle\/cardiac-arrest-survival-july<\/a><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>More Lives Saved After Cardiac Arrest Thanks to Faster Help and Better Hospital Care Published in JAMA Cardiology \u2013 July 16, 2025 Main Points: 1.
