| Summary: | Despite significant progress in medicine, out-of-hospital cardiac (OHCA) remains one of the leading causes of death around the world. Epidemiological data suggest wide distribution of OHCA, low incidence of cardiopulmonary resuscitation attempts and low efficiency of resuscitation in the Russian Federation. Both implementation of measures for reducing mortality from OHCA and monitoring of their efficiency should be based on up-to-date, reliable data on national and regional OHCA epidemiology and performance of emergency medical services. The aim of this review is to provide a rationale for establishment of the national OHCA registry as a main instrument of collection, arrangement, storage, processing and presentation of data on OHCA epidemiology and efficiency of care provided. The review includes the analysis of OHCA epidemiological studies carried out in Russia, describes general concept and international experience of developing OHCA registries, and discusses Utstein guidelines for uniform reporting of OHCA data. |
