We anticipate therefore that overall 30-days survival will increase on a national level from 9% to 12%.\n\nMethod During the period 110901 to 141231 all OHCA cases will be analyzed were the emergency medical communication centre (EMCC) has dispatched ambulance, firefighters and/or the police. Participating in the Saving More Lives in Sweden (SAMS) project are the following counties: Stockholm, Sodermanland, Jonkoping, Vastra Gotaland (VG Region), Halland, Dalarna, Jamtland, Kalmar and Uppsala. Data is collected by the units being dispatched and thereafter sent on line to a database managed by Registercentrum in Gothenburg (http://www.registercentrum.se/), administrators of the Swedish Cardiac Arrest Register.\n\nParameters obtained are:\n\n* Time for dispatch of fire fighters and/or police (recorded digitally).\n* Time for arrival to the patient.\n* Verification if cardiac arrest or not.\n* CPR performed by fire fighters or police before arrival of EMS.\n* Automated External Defibrillator (AED) connected to the patient.\n* If yes, was the first recorded rhythm shockable, i.e. ventricular fibrillation (VF) or pulseless ventricular tachycardia (VT).\n* Time to defibrillation.\n\nSurvival data during from the Swedish Cardiac Arrest Register (SCAR) will be obtained during the same time period from nine comparable Swedish regions not participating in the SAMS study.'}, 'eligibilityModule': {'sex': 'ALL', 'stdAges': ['CHILD', 'ADULT', 'OLDER_ADULT'], 'minimumAge': '8 Years', 'healthyVolunteers': False, 'eligibilityCriteria': 'Inclusion Criteria:\n\n* All cases where the dispatcher suspects cardiac arrest, i.e. unconscious person with abnormal or no breathing\n\nExclusion Criteria:\n\n* Children \\< 8 y\n* Obviously deceased persons according to regulations in EMS protocols'}, 'identificationModule': {'nctId': 'NCT02184468', 'acronym': 'SAMS', 'briefTitle': 'Survival Study After Out-of-hospital Cardiac Arrest', 'organization': {'class': 'OTHER', 'fullName': 'Karolinska Institutet'}, 'officialTitle': 'Dual Dispatch of EMS, Fire Fighters and/or Police in Out-of-hospital Cardiac Arrest Implemented in Nine Counties in Sweden - Can More Lives be Saved by Using This Method?', 'orgStudyIdInfo': {'id': 'SAMS 242-11'}}, 'armsInterventionsModule': {'armGroups': [{'type': 'OTHER', 'label': 'Dual dispatch', 'description': 'Simultaneously dispatching of EMS, firefighters and/or police in OHCA', 'interventionNames': ['Other: Simultaneously dispatch of firefighters and/or police in case of OHCA']}], 'interventions': [{'name': 'Simultaneously dispatch of firefighters and/or police in case of OHCA', 'type': 'OTHER', 'description': 'In case of OHCA, firefighters and/or police trained in CPR and equipped with AEDs will be dispatched in parallel with EMS in nine counties in Sweden.', 'armGroupLabels': ['Dual dispatch']}]}, 'contactsLocationsModule': {'locations': [{'zip': 'SE-11883', 'city': 'Stockholm', 'status': 'RECRUITING', 'country': 'Sweden', 'contacts': [{'name': 'Leif Svensson, MD, PhD', 'role': 'CONTACT', 'email': 'leif.svensson@ki.se', 'phone': '+4686161000'}, {'name': 'Johan Herlitz, MD, PhD', 'role': 'CONTACT', 'email': 'johan.herlitz@gu.se', 'phone': '+46334354000'}], 'facility': 'Center for Resuscitation Science, Sodersjukhuset', 'geoPoint': {'lat': 59.32938, 'lon': 18.06871}}], 'centralContacts': [{'name': 'Leif Svensson', 'role': 'CONTACT', 'email': 'leif.svensson@ki.se', 'phone': '+4686161000'}, {'name': 'Johan Herlitz', 'role': 'CONTACT', 'email': 'johan.herlitz@gu.se', 'phone': '+46334354000'}], 'overallOfficials': [{'name': 'Leif Svensson, MD, PhD', 'role': 'PRINCIPAL_INVESTIGATOR', 'affiliation': 'Center for Resuscitation Science, Karolinska Institutet, Stockholm, Sweden'}]}, 'sponsorCollaboratorsModule': {'leadSponsor': {'name': 'Karolinska Institutet', 'class': 'OTHER'}, 'collaborators': [{'name': 'Laerdal Foundation', 'class': 'OTHER'}, {'name': 'Swedish Heart Lung Foundation', 'class': 'OTHER'}, {'name': 'Ministry of Health and Social Affairs, Sweden', 'class': 'OTHER_GOV'}, {'name': 'Swedish Association of Local Authorities and Regions', 'class': 'OTHER'}], 'responsibleParty': {'type': 'PRINCIPAL_INVESTIGATOR', 'investigatorTitle': 'Professor', 'investigatorFullName': 'Leif Svensson', 'investigatorAffiliation': 'Karolinska Institutet'}}}}
