ملخص

Sudden cardiac arrest (SCA) in long-distance running races has an incidence rate of 2.18 per 100,000 participants and a high mortality rate. Strategic planning for the medical response in a marathon event is therefore an uphill task for the organizer. Our medical operational model for the Penang Bridge International Marathon (PBIM) has not just improved the survival for marathon-related SCA, but also has been cost-effective for a middle-income country. Two runners from PBIM in 2019 had episodes of cardiac arrest at almost the same time at different locations towards the end of the run route, which were both responded by different teams of Basic Life Support trained volunteers, and then were sent to the Main Medical Base for further Advanced Life Support care before receiving ICU care in the tertiary hospital. Both patients achieved good neurological outcomes and survived hospital discharge.
