Multiple cluster analysis for the identification of high-risk census tracts for out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) in Denver Colorado

摘要

BackgroundPrior research has shown that high-risk census tracts for out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) can be identified. High-risk neighborhoods are defined as having a high incidence of OHCA and a low prevalence of bystander cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR). However, there is no consensus regarding the process for identifying high-risk neighborhoods.
