Gastric Inflation in Prehospital Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation: Aspiration Pneumonia and Resuscitation Outcomes

Reviews in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2023
Background: Gastric inflation (GI) can induce gastric regurgitation and subsequent aspiration pneumonia, which can prolong intensive care unit stay. However, it has not been verified in patients with out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA).

Attitudes towards bystander cardiopulmonary resuscitation: Results from a cross-sectional general population survey [PDF]

, 2018
Survival from out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) varies across the developed world. Although not all OHCA are recoverable, the survival rate in Scotland is lower than in comparable countries, with higher average survival rates of 7.9% in England and 9%

Mild hypothermia alone or in combination with anesthetic post-conditioning reduces expression of inflammatory cytokines in the cerebral cortex of pigs after cardiopulmonary resuscitation [PDF]

, 2010
Introduction: Hypothermia improves survival and neurological recovery after cardiac arrest. Pro-inflammatory cytokines have been implicated in focal cerebral ischemia/reperfusion in-jury.

Regional disparities and temporal trends in pre-hospital management of out-of-hospital cardiac arrest in Thailand: a multi-center retrospective cohort study (2017–2023)

Resuscitation Plus
Background: Out-of-hospital cardiac arrest remains a major public health concern in Thailand, where pre-hospital care and survival outcomes vary widely across regions. Furthermore, national-level data remains sparse and fragmented.

A survey of factors associated with the successful recognition of agonal breathing and cardiac arrest by 9-1-1 call takers: design and methodology

BMC Emergency Medicine, 2009
Background Cardiac arrest victims most often collapse at home, where only a modest proportion receives life-saving bystander cardiopulmonary resuscitation. As many as 40% of all sudden cardiac arrest victims have agonal or abnormal breathing in the first

Interviews With Physicians and Nurses Revealed Inconsistencies in Paediatric Basic Life Support Training for Families of Children With Heart Disease in Sweden

Acta Paediatrica, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aim Paediatric basic life support (PBLS) training is strongly recommended for the families of children with elevated risks of cardiac arrest, as their initial survival could rely heavily on bystanders. We explored the perspectives of physicians and nurses on PBLS training and identified perceived barriers and facilitators to implementing ...

The effect of real-time CPR feedback and post event debriefing on patient and processes focused outcomes : a cohort study : trial protocol [PDF]

, 2011
Background: Cardiac arrest affects 30-35, 000 hospitalised patients in the UK every year. For these patients to be given the best chance of survival, high quality cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) must be delivered, however the quality of CPR in real ...
