Quality of dispatch‐assisted cardiopulmonary resuscitation by lay rescuers following a standard protocol in Japan: an observational simulation study

Bystander cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) is essential for improving the outcomes of sudden cardiac arrest patients. It has been reported that dispatch‐assisted CPR (DACPR) accounts for more than half of the incidence of CPR undertaken by bystanders. Its quality, however, can be suboptimal. We aimed to measure the quality of DACPR using a simulation study
