Telemedicine in cardiac arrest protocols: Comparative impact of video and audio dispatcher assistance.
Article in World journal of critical care medicine, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
backgroundIn recent years, the utilization of telemedicine in emergency situations, particularly in the context of cardiac arrest, has garnered increasing attention. This study addresses the comparative effectiveness of video-instructed dispatcher-assisted cardiopulmonary resuscitation (DA-CPR)
aimTo compare the effectiveness of video-instructed DA-CPR and audio-instructed DA-CPR in terms of survival rates to hospital discharge.
methodsWe conducted a comprehensive search of electronic databases, including PubMed, from inception to October 2023, using keywords such as cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR), cardiac arrest, and telemedicine combined with Boolean operators. Language was restricted to English, with no date of publication restrictions. We included studies assessing the impact of DA-CPR guidance through video or audio instruction on the quality of CPR performed by bystanders in real-life and simulated environments.
resultsOur research strategy yielded 537 references. After the final analysis, we selected 27 articles from the PubMed database that met our inclusion criteria. The mean age of the included participants was 37.1 years. The study presents compelling evidence in favor of video-instructed DA-CPR, showing a significant improvement in survival rates to discharge compared to audio-instructed DA-CPR.
conclusionDA-CPR plays a crucial role in the chain of survival for out-of-hospital cardiac arrest patients. Extensive research has consistently demonstrated its effectiveness in increasing bystander-initiated CPR and improving patient outcomes. Ongoing technological advancements, such as video calls and automated external defibrillator integration, continue to refine and enhance the delivery of DA-CPR. However, continuous efforts are required to standardize dispatcher training and further optimize communication strategies to ensure the highest quality of care for cardiac arrest victims.
