* National Cardiac Arrest Registry (NCAR)
 
      Overview and status

 

The Resuscitation Council (UK) and ICNARC are pleased to announce that, following positive results from the recent feasibility study, joint, three-year, pump-prime funds from the two organisations have been allocated to establishing NCAR. NCAR will be overseen by a Steering Group of individuals with relevant expertise.

Initial work for establishing NCAR currently involves: identifying key individuals in each NHS Trust in the UK to approach for future participation in NCAR; finalising a small, minimum dataset; and establishing the infrastructure for web-based data entry and reporting.

To facilitate taking this work forward, we are recruiting an NCAR Coordinator to be based at ICNARC.

We anticipate that NCAR will be of enormous benefit to those involved and interested in outcomes following resuscitation and look forward to developing NCAR in a collaborative effort over the coming years.

Futher details about NCAR will be posted here as they become available.
