Sammanfattning
Denmark has introduced health professional operators (HPO) at the dispatch centres to ensure early identification of cardiac arrest and earlier initiation of cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) to improve survival. Communicative skills and personal competences are important, and the HPOs' medical background will probably lead to better triage of patients. Their use of a protocol, leads to a more frequent recognition of cardiac arrest and contributes to better CPR guidance. A common national training for all the HPOs' has been implemented and future guidance might include video-transmission.
