Abstract

Background

Early defibrillation is one of the interventions that can most influence the prognosis of cardiac arrest. The objectives of this study were to determine the number of automatic external defibrillators outside the healthcare setting in each autonomous community in Spain and to compare the legislation of each autonomous community on the mandatory installation of defibrillators outside the healthcare setting.

Methods

A cross-sectional observational study was carried out between December 2021 and January 2022 by consulting official data in the 17 Spanish autonomous communities.

Results

Complete data on the number of registered defibrillators were obtained from 15 autonomous communities. The number of defibrillators ranged from 35 to 126 per 100,000 inhabitants. At the global level, differences were observed between communities with mandatory defibrillator installation and those without (92.1 vs. 57.8 defibrillators/100,000 inhabitants).

Conclusions

There is heterogeneity in the provision of defibrillators outside the health care setting, which seems to be related to the diversity of legislation on the mandatory installation of defibrillators.

西班牙自治社区在医疗领域以外提供半自动体外除颤器方面的差异

背景:心脏除颤是影响心脏骤停预后最重要的干预措施之一。本研究的目的是确定西班牙每个自治区在医疗机构外自动体外除颤器的数量，并比较每个自治区在医疗机构外强制安装除颤器的立法。方法通过查阅西班牙17个自治区的官方数据，于2021年12月至2022年1月进行横断面观察研究。结果获得了15个自治区登记除颤器数量的完整数据。除颤器的数量从每10万居民35至126台不等。在全球范围内，强制安装除颤器的社区与未安装除颤器的社区之间存在差异(92.1台/10万居民vs 57.8台/10万居民)。结论:在医疗机构之外提供除颤器存在异质性，这似乎与强制安装除颤器的立法多样性有关。
