AED-delivery Using Drones in Suspected OHCA

Totally n=5 drones are equipped with automated external defibrillators (AEDs). These drones are deployed by the dispatch centre to cases of suspected out-of-hospital cardiac (OHCA) as a complement to standard care (ambulance/EMS) over up to 14 months during daytime Monday to Sunday 08:00-22:00. The bystander onsite receives instructions from the dispatcher to retrieve the AED outside the house when it has been delivered by the drone. The bystander attaches the AED to the patients chest to facilitate early defibrillation.
