Connecting someone with a defibrillator after out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) is crucial. The possibility of survival drops significantly after 5 minutes.    Dr. Monique Starks, associate professor in the Department of Medicine at the Duke University School of Medicine, is the author of a newly published study that modeled the potential impact drone delivery of AEDs might have on response times for OHCA. The study, which included historical OHCAs between 2013-2019 from 48 counties in North Carolina, found that a network of drones combined with first responders universally having AEDs, could increase the percent of OHCAs with a response time of less than five minutes from 16% to 56.3% with a median time of 4.8 minutes compared with historical response time of 8.0 minutes.    Check out a demonstration of the AED drone delivery in the video.    The results were published in the journal JACC Advances: https://lnkd.in/gGhJWed5 American College of Cardiology | National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute | Duke Clinical Research Institute | Duke University School of Medicine | #AEDs
