BACKGROUND: The objective was to describe emergency medical services (EMS) protocol variability in transport expectations for out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) patients and the involvement of online medical control for on-scene termination of resuscitation in the United States. Whether other aspects of OHCA care were mentioned, including the definition of a "pediatric" patient, and use of end-tidal carbon dioxide monitoring, mechanical chest compression devices (MCCDs), and extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO), were also described.
METHODS AND RESULTS: Review of EMS protocols publicly accessible from https://www.emsprotocols.org and through searches on the internet when protocols were unavailable on the website from June 2021 to January 2022. Frequencies and proportions were used to describe outcomes. Of 104 protocols reviewed, 51.9% state to initiate transport after return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC), 26.0% do not specify when to initiate transport, and 6.7% state to transport after ≥20 minutes of on-scene cardiopulmonary resuscitation for adults. For pediatric patients, 38.5% of protocols do not specify when to initiate transport, 32.7% state to transport after ROSC, and 10.6% state to transport as soon as possible. Most protocols (42.3%) did not specify the age that defines "pediatric" in cardiac arrest. More than half (51.9%) of the protocols require online medical control for termination of resuscitation. Most protocols mention the use of end-tidal carbon dioxide monitoring (81.7%), 50.0% mention the use of MCCDs, and 4.8% mention ECMO for cardiac arrest.
CONCLUSIONS: In the United States, EMS protocols for initiation of transport and termination of resuscitation for OHCA patients are highly variable.
