Contactless Cardiac Arrest Detection Using Smart Devices [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2019
Out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) is a leading cause of death worldwide. Rapid diagnosis and initiation of cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) is the cornerstone of therapy for victims of cardiac arrest. Yet a significant fraction of cardiac arrest victims have no chance of survival because they experience an unwitnessed event, often in the privacy

CPR: cardiac phosphatase in resuscitation

open access: yesJournal of Clinical Investigation, 2023
Out-of-hospital cardiac arrest is associated with a dismal mortality rate and low long-term survival. A large pharmacological knowledge gap exists in identifying drugs that preserve neurological function and increase long-term survival after cardiac arrest. In this issue of the JCI, Li, Zhu, and colleagues report on their engineering of a 20-amino acid

Current and novel biomarkers in cardiogenic shock

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Heart Failure, EarlyView.
A summary of current and novel biomarkers and their potential stages of release in cardiogenic shock. The diagram illustrates the proposed release of the biomarkers during the different stages of cardiogenic shock: progression from cardiac dysfunction/stress, through to inflammation and end‐organ dysfunction.

Successful resuscitation for cardiac arrest due to severe accidental hypothermia accompanied by mandibular rigidity: a case of cold stiffening mimicking rigor mortis

open access: yesInternational Journal of Emergency Medicine, 2018
Background In cases of severe accidental hypothermia, it was recommended that resuscitation should be continued until the patient has rewarmed, as hypothermia itself can preserve cerebral function, and hypothermic cardiac arrest is reversible.

The design of an agent based model of human activities and communications in cardiac resuscitation [PDF]

open access: yesHawaii International Conference on System Sciences, Jan 2015, Kauai, United States, 2019
Cardio-pulmonary arrest is a common emergency situation causing over 400,000 deaths per year, more than a 1000 per day, in the USA alone. The goal of this work is to develop an agent based computer simulator that will allow trainers to experiment with different communication protocols, such as those found in air traffic control.

Incidence and predictors of weaning failure from veno‐arterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation therapy in patients with cardiogenic shock

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Heart Failure, EarlyView.
Predictors of weaning failure from veno‐arterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VA‐ECMO) in patients with cardiogenic shock. RRT, renal replacement therapy. Abstract Aims This study aimed to investigate incidence and predictors of weaning failure and in‐hospital death after successful weaning from veno‐arterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation

Cardiac arrest in pregnancy: A case report and review of the literature

open access: yesSouth African Journal of Obstetrics and Gynaecology, 2015
Cardiac arrest in pregnancy is a rare event, and resuscitation of the pregnant patient is complicated by the impact on resuscitative measures of the normal physiological changes of pregnancy.

Cardiac rhythm devices in heart failure with reduced ejection fraction – role, timing, and optimal use in contemporary practice. European Journal of Heart Failure expert consensus document

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Heart Failure, EarlyView.
Abstract Guidelines for management of heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF) emphasize personalized care, patient engagement, and shared decision‐making. Medications and cardiac rhythm management (CRM) devices are recommended with a high level of evidence. However, there are significant disparities: patients who could benefit from devices

iRescU - Data for Social Good Saving Lives Bridging the Gaps in Sudden Cardiac Arrest Survival [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2016
Currently every day in the USA 1000 people die of sudden cardiac arrest (SCA) outside of hospitals or ambulances - before emergency medical help arrives - in the streets, workplaces, schools and homes of our cities, adults and children. Brain death commences in 3 minutes, and often the ambulance just can't be there in time.
