Key Points

The study aims to evaluate the effects of direct pre-hospital transport of OHCA patients with shockable rhythms to a specialized cardiac arrest center.
Utilized the BCIS conveyance algorithm for patient transport
Focused on patients with out-of-hospital cardiac arrest
Assessed survival rates and neurological outcomes at 30 days
Patients transported directly to a cardiac arrest center showed improved 30-day survival rates
Enhanced neurological outcomes were observed compared to other transport methods
