Out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) is the most common cause of death from heart attacks. Although victims of OHCA typically experience hours of warning symptoms, the majority underestimate their significance and fail to take early action. This research explores whether a public awareness campaign can help to prevent OHCA by increasing public knowledge of the warning symptoms and the importance of accessing ambulance care. The findings will help shape the direction of future campaigns.

院外心脏骤停（OHCA）是心脏病发作最常见的死亡原因。虽然OHCA的受害者通常会经历数小时的警告症状，但大多数人低估了其重要性，未能及早采取行动。本研究探讨了公众意识运动是否有助于通过增加公众对警告症状的了解和获得救护车护理的重要性来预防OHCA。这些发现将有助于塑造未来运动的方向。
