Highlights of 2015
Investigators and staff were successful in obtaining funding for a number of Aus-ROC studies, including the EXACT RCT ($1.89M -NHRMC), studies to understand regional variation in bystander CPR ($83K –NHF), and to conduct a post-resuscitation audit in Victorian hospitals ($50K –NBVLL). The NHF also awarded Aus-ROC investigator the Ross Hohnen Award for Research Excellence for the most outstanding and innovative grant application.
Staff and students published 7 Aus-ROC publications, including papers examining: factors related to OHCA survival, trends in incidence over time, CPR training practices, and resuscitation exposure. Staff and students also received a number of national and international conference awards.
We look forward to what 2016 will bring!
