[Ambulance services for patients with acute cardiac conditions in Denmark--current state].
In 1985, the Danish Board of Health published a review of the therapeutic value of heart ambulances. A report is presented here concerning the extent to which prehospital treatment of cardiac arrest recommended by the Board of Health has been intensified after publication of the review. ⋯ Recent Danish investigations have demonstrated better prognosis both as regards survival and as regards recovery when intensified prehospital treatment of cardiac arrest is employed. Hence legislation steps should be taken to improve pre-hospital treatment of cardiac arrest.
