Summary

Overall survival of patients after out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (\*OHCA\*) is less than 10% worldwide and in Taiwan. Interventions provided by the emergency medical system (\*EMS\*) before arrival at the hospital are of paramount importance to patient outcomes after OHCA. Among those interventions, the pros-and-cons of different vascular accesses, including intraosseous (\*IO\*) access or intravenous (\*IV\*) access, remained the issue of most under debate.

The objective of this study is to determine the comparative effectiveness of IO access vs IV access in patients with OHCA by a randomized controlled trial (\*RCT\*) in Taipei EMS. To name in short, the investigators called it a "\*VICTOR\* trial" standing for "Venous Injection Compared To intraOsseous injection during Resuscitation of patients with out-of-hospital cardiac arrest".
