Key Points

Investigate how the sex of bystanders affects CPR provision in cardiac arrest situations.
Analyzed interactions between patient and bystander sex during CPR events
Focused on instances where patient was male and bystander was female
Evaluated the potential of DA-CPR as an intervention
Significant disparity in CPR provision was found based on the sex of the bystander
DA-CPR may reduce the observed gender gap in CPR provision

Implication

Analysis reveals gender disparity in CPR provision during out-of-hospital cardiac arrests, suggesting DA-CPR may help.

Abstract

An interaction between the patient and the sex of bystander was observed, particularly when the patient was a male and the bystander was a female. DA-CPR may serve as a potential intervention to help mitigate this disparity.
