Review Meta Analysis
Incidence and outcome of out-of-hospital cardiac arrests in the COVID-19 era: A systematic review and meta-analysis.
The impact of COVID-19 on pre-hospital and hospital services and hence on the prevalence and outcomes of out-of-hospital cardiac arrests (OHCA) remain unclear. The review aimed to evaluate the influence of the COVID-19 pandemic on the incidence, process, and outcomes of OHCA. ⋯ PROSPERO (CRD42020203371).

Review Clinical Trial
The effect of system performance improvement on patients with cardiac arrest: A systematic review.
The aim of our review was to understand the effect of interventions to improve system-level performance on the clinical outcomes of patients with cardiac arrest. ⋯ Although only moderate to very low certainty of evidence exists to support the effect of system-level performance improvement on the clinical outcomes of patients, we recommend that organisations or communities evaluate their performance and target key areas with the goal to improve performance because of no known risks and the potential for a large beneficial effect.
