Abstract

Purpose of Review

Out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) remains a significant health problem in the USA and only 8.6% of victims survive with good neurological function, despite advances in emergency cardiac care. The likelihood of OHCA survival decreases by 10% for every minute without resuscitation.

Recent Findings

Automatic external defibrillators (AEDs) have the potential to save lives yet public access defibrillators are underutilized (< 2% of the time) because they are difficult to locate and rarely available in homes or residential areas, where the majority (70%) of OHCA occur. Even when AEDs are within close proximity (within 100 m), they are not used 40% of the time.

Summary

Unmanned aerial vehicles, or drones, have the potential to deliver AEDs to a bystander and augment emergency medical service (EMS) care. We review the use of drones in medicine, what is currently known, and clinical implications for advancing emergency cardiac care.

The purpose of this pilot study was to compare delivery times of autonomous flying drones equipped with AEDs versus EMS in simulated OHCA. Investigators conducted eighteen flights to test the feasibility of autonomous drones equipped with AEDs and concluded it was feasible to fly drones equipped with AEDs in out-of-sight flights.

This comprehensive review identified UAV application in medicine in three categories: prehospital emergency care, expediting laboratory diagnostic testing, and surveillance. Authors concluded that UAVs have the potential to both access and quality of healthcare for patients otherwise restricted due to cost, distance, or infrastructure.

Investigators developed a geographical approach using drones equipped with AEDs. Their goal was to have one drone on scene within one minute for at least 90% of the demand while minimizing implementation costs. Maximum Coverage Location Problem model was used to determine the best configuration of drones to increase service. Using a combination of current EMS sites and new locations to launch drones equipped with AEDs would result in 90.3% of demand being reached within a minute. CrossRefPubMed
