Abstract
Out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) is a critical condition with poor outcomes. Although the survival rate increases in those who undergo defibrillation, the utility of on-time defibrillation among bystanders remained low. An evaluation of the deployment strategy for public access defibrillators (PADs) is necessary to increase their use and accessibility. This study was to conduct a systematic review for deployment strategies of PADs.
