Brief summary
The investigators aimed to investigate the effect of delayed hospitalization on the basis of the call time on the clinical outcomes of patients with OHCA patients using a nationwide OHCA registry.

Therefore, The investigators aimed to investigate the effect of delayed hospitalization on the basis of the call time on the clinical outcomes of patients with OHCA patients using a nationwide OHCA registry.
