A person experiencing an out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) requires urgent medical attention. Survival rates are low, but increase with rapid initiation of cardiopulmonary resuscitation, defibrillation and other more advanced treatments. Accordingly, OHCA calls are among the most urgent faced by emergency medical services (EMS). Smartphone-enabled schemes like GoodSAM [1] and PulsePoint [3] can help. When an OHCA call is received, volunteers close to the OHCA can be alerted through an app on their phone. Volunteers need not respond, but when they do they proceed to the scene of the OHCA and render assistance. An ambulance also responds, so the workload of ambulances is unaffected. If a volunteer arrives at the scene first, then they render assistance until an ambulance crew arrives. Ambulance response times can vary but are often on the order of 9 minutes. Thus, with sufficient volunteer density, volunteers are likely to arrive before the ambulance, thereby improving survival rates. There is a growing medical literature on volunteer schemes for OHCA that primarily focuses on data analysis.[4] gives an overview and develops stochastic models that can help determine the number and location of volunteers needed to materially improve survival rates. Here we discuss a problem related to volunteer dispatch.
