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

Abstract Background Sudden cardiac arrests at school are rare but devastating events among student athletes, with significant psychosocial impact on teachers and students. The American Heart Association advocates for Cardiac Emergency Response Plans (CERP) to improve survival, yet evidence from Asia remains limited.

Abstract Background To evaluate whether delayed emergency department (ED) arrival mediates the association between regional deprivation and outcomes after out‐of‐hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA), and whether this mediation differs by bystander cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR).

Compression-only CPR, outreach and education to improve bystander CPR
Out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) is leading cause of death in US totaling 350,000 cases per year with only 38.2% CPR performed. The target audience of this project is community members from diverse backgrounds including members in healthcare, social

Survival following out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) remains low, typically less than 10%. Bystander cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) and bystander-AED use have been shown to improve survival by up to fourfold in individual studies.

ABSTRACT Background Intensive care following resuscitation from out‐of‐hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) is based on a set of interventions, all of which are intended to reduce anoxic brain injury and improve outcomes, including sedation, mechanical ventilation, circulatory optimization, and temperature control protocols.

ABSTRACT Background The inflammatory response to whole‐body ischemia, as seen in comatose survivors after out‐of‐hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA), is associated with increased morbidity and mortality. Early high‐dose dexamethasone may dampen the inflammatory response, which may diminish secondary brain damage and other organ injury and decrease mortality.

The Danish Out‐of‐Hospital Cardiac Arrest Trial: A Statistical Analysis Plan
ABSTRACT Background Post‐cardiac arrest care for patients resuscitated from out‐of‐hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) includes multiple pharmacological and physiological interventions, yet optimal strategies to reduce post‐cardiac arrest syndrome–related morbidity and mortality remain uncertain.
