Effect of Cardiac Arrest Center Protocol Implementation on Survival After Nontraumatic Out‐of‐Hospital Cardiac Arrest [PDF]
Background Evidence on the effect of treatment at a cardiac arrest center (CAC) on clinical outcomes is incomplete and conflicting. The aim was to evaluate the effect of treatment at a CAC on survival after out‐of‐hospital cardiac arrest.

BackgroundPatients after out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) are at increased risk for mortality and poor neurological outcome. We assessed the additive impact of interleukin 6 (IL-6) at admission to neuron-specific enolase (NSE) at day 3 for prognosis

Early Extracorporeal CPR for Refractory Out-of-Hospital Cardiac Arrest.
BACKGROUND Extracorporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) restores perfusion and oxygenation in a patient who does not have spontaneous circulation. The evidence with regard to the effect of extracorporeal CPR on survival with a favorable neurologic ...

Guidelines for Neuroprognostication in Comatose Adult Survivors of Cardiac Arrest
Background Among cardiac arrest survivors, about half remain comatose 72 h following return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC). Prognostication of poor neurological outcome in this population may result in withdrawal of life-sustaining therapy and death ...

Hypothermia versus Normothermia after Out-of-Hospital Cardiac Arrest
BACKGROUND: Targeted temperature management is recommended for patients after cardiac arrest, but the supporting evidence is of low certainty. METHODS: In an open-label trial with blinded assessment of outcomes, we randomly assigned 1900 adults with coma

BackgroundMortality after out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) with return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC) remains high despite numerous efforts to improve outcome. For patients with suspected coronary cause of arrest, coronary angiography is crucial.

Importance Out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) has poor outcome. Whether intra-arrest transport, extracorporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitation (ECPR), and immediate invasive assessment and treatment (invasive strategy) is beneficial in this setting ...

Sömn hos hjärtstoppsöver- levare ur sjuksköterskans perspektiv
Plötsligt hjärtstopp är ett globalt hälsoproblem, som tyvärr har en låg överlevnadsgrad. Ungefär 20 % överlever ett hjärtstopp om det sker inne på ett sjukhus, endast hälften så många (ca 10 %) överlever om det sker utanför sjukhus.

Background: Acute myocardial infarction-related cardiogenic shock (AMI-CS) still has high likelihood of in-hospital mortality. The only trial evidence currently available for the intra-aortic balloon pump showed no benefit of its routine use in AMI-CS ...
