The impact of cardiopulmonary resuscitation quality on outcomes from cardiac arrest

Description 
This project, which has the flexibility to choose from a variety of potential exposures, aims to examine the relationship between paramedic cardiopulmonary resuscitation quality and survival from cardiac arrest. The project involves the use of data from the Victorian Ambulance Cardiac Arrest Registry (VACAR) which is maintained by Ambulance Victoria, and contains information on all patients who suffer an out-of-hospital cardiac arrest in Victoria (almost 130,000 patients).
