Abstract
Introduction Out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) is a major health problem, and the overall survival rate is low (4.6%-16.4%). The initiation of the current chain of survival depends on the presence of a witness of the OHCA, which is not present in 29.7%-63.4% of the cases. Furthermore, a delay in starting this chain is common in witnessed OHCA. This project aims to reduce morbidity and mortality due to OHCA by developing a smartwatch-based solution to expedite the chain of survival in the case of (un)witnessed OHCA.
