In Denmark the out-of-hospital survival rate is 12.7% and in only 3.6% of the incidents an automated external defibrillator (AED) has been used. The statistics show that 1 out of 8 people will survive if first-aid is provided, while only 1 out of 30 people will survive without CPR. 76% of the people surviving a cardiac arrest are able to return to work, but a key factor is how long it takes before the lifesaving first-aid is provided. In most incidents it takes more than five minutes before the ambulance arrives at the person suffering cardiac arrest. (In Germany the regulatory response time is maximum 12 minutes, but in reality the response time is up to 30 minutes.) Is an AED applied within the first three to five minutes it will improve the chances of survival by 50-70%. The challenge in both Germany and Denmark is that it takes too long for the emergency service to arrive to the scene in case of cardiac arrests. And as each minute counts a significant improvement of the survival rates of cardiac arrests can only be increased with a targeted effort through which the general public is also activated. The challenges in Denmark and Germany to achieve this activation are identical. We would like to establish a border-crossing collaboration for knowledge-sharing and for implementing a common campaign with maximum media attention. The overall purpose of the project Border-Crossing First Aid is to increase the number of survivals after cardiac arrests by: 1. Optimising the level of preparedness and pre-hospital efforts. 2. Optimising the duration of time from alarm to arrival. 3. Border-Crossing Emergency First Aid. This will be achieved by: 1. Creating a sense of security for the citizens and increasing the voluntary initiative. 2. Increasing the collaboration and knowledge-sharing between the organisations and public authorities. 3. Knowledge-sharing between first aid trainers. 4. Increasing knowledge about AED in terms of access and use. The innovative point of the project is that the two applications are based on the same application which is then adapted to the Danish and the German emergency services, while at the same time implementing a common campaign and common training activities on how to become an active first-aider; to be confident to act in a critical situation regardless of location. By making the project border-crossing we will be able to exchange lessons learned and through this be able to optimise the project. This will achieve a far higher level of attention among the general public and at the same time the society will become aware of the importance of involving volunteers in this important effort to increase the survival rate significantly.
