Given the high prevalence of out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA), the low survival rate, the high morbidity rate, and the significant cost to both the patient and the system, it is imperative that we address any and all factors that contribute to recognition of a OHCA case, any barriers that prevent chest compressions, and improve medical care to treat OHCA events in order to increase survival rate, decrease morbidity, and lessen the economical burden of cardiac arrest events. Additionally, understanding the relationship between seizures and OHCA can help medical professionals, including Neurologists and other doctors, to explain to the public when one should call into EMS regarding a seizure-like event in the event of a possible OHCA. This would help to address and alleviate the result of this major public health concern.
