    Nova Scotia’s cardiovascular health landscape

    The province faces significant challenges in managing cardiac health:

    • Out-of-Hospital Cardiac Arrests (OHCAs): Paramedics in Nova Scotia respond to more than 1,200 cardiac arrests annually.
    • Survival Rates: Of the approximately 1,000 Nova Scotians who suffer an out-of-hospital cardiac arrest each year, only about 6% survive.
    • Impact of COVID-19: During the early phase of the pandemic, there was a notable increase in out-of-hospital cardiac arrests, rising from a monthly mean of 115 to 136 cases.
