About the Lab

Professor Kyoung Jun Song's research lab specializes in emergency medicine and prehospital care, with a focus on improving outcomes for patients with out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA). The lab investigates time-sensitive interventions such as extracorporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitation (ECPR), emphasizing the impact of response time and system variability on survival. Their work leverages large-scale national registries to evaluate prehospital care systems, particularly in Asian contexts where EMS infrastructure varies significantly. The lab also explores the influence of patient characteristics, arrest etiology, and system-level factors on long-term outcomes.

OBJECTIVES: The association between the time from arrest to extracorporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitation (ECPR) and survival from out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) is unclear. The aim of this study was to determine whether time to ECPR is associated with survival in OHCA. METHODS: We analysed the Korean national OHCA registry from 2013 to 2016. We included adult witnessed OHCA patients with presumed cardiac aetiology who underwent ECPR. Patients were excluded if their arrest times or outcome
