Abstract

The article discusses a National Institutes of Health (NIH)-supported study that found disparities in survival benefits from bystander cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) for out-of-hospital cardiac arrest based on race and sex. Topics include significantly higher survival rates for white adults and men compared to Black adults and women, with researchers calling for more equitable CPR training and delivery to improve outcomes for all groups.
