Current Research Interests
Resuscitation Research Group interests include the management of out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA), non-technical skills in time-critical resuscitation, and the optimisation of the whole ‘Chain of Survival’. RRG produces the annual OHCA data linkage report in collaboration with the Scottish Ambulance Service and hosts the Delivery Group which drives the implementation of Scotland’s Strategy for OHCA.
The group is the home of the national ‘Save a Life for Scotland’ partnership (www.savealife.scot) and the ‘Language of Resuscitation’ social sciences collaboration, examining the role of communication and cognition in high-stakes medical emergencies.
