CDC commits over $23 million to expand CARES, Emory's national cardiac arrest registry
Emory’s Cardiac Arrest Registry to Enhance Survival (CARES), the only national data collection tool that connects pre-hospital cardiac arrest data with hospital outcomes, will receive $23.85 million in grant funding over the next five years from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). The new grant marks a return to public funding for the CARES performance and quality improvement program, something made possible through recent legislation that was signed into law at the end of last year.
