Comparison of chest compression quality in walking versus straddling cardiopulmonary resuscitation during stretcher transportation: A prospective randomised crossover study using manikins.

PLoS ONE, 2019
The optimal strategy to ensure chest compression quality for patients being transported on a stretcher has not been established yet. We hypothesised that straddling cardiopulmonary resuscitation may improve chest compression quality in patients being ...

Effect of Cardiac Rehabilitation on Cardiovascular Events in Patients With Advanced Chronic Kidney Disease

Therapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Little is known about the effect of cardiac rehabilitation (CR) on cardiovascular events in patients with advanced chronic kidney disease (CKD). Methods We performed a retrospective cohort study in 189 patients with an estimated glomerular filtration rate of less than 30 mL/min/1.73 m2 who were referred to our outpatient CR center.

Correlation Analyses Between Serum Interleukin-7, Interleukin-15 and Lactate Provide Insights Into Their Potential Roles in the Regulation of Inflammation in Elderly Septic Patients

Biomarker Insights
Background: Our previous research have identified Interleukin (IL)-7 and IL-15 as prognostic biomarkers for elderly septic patients, however, little is known about the link between the serum levels of IL-7, IL-15, and lactate as well as their potential ...

Extracorporeal Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation [PDF]

, 2019
Extracorporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitation (ECPR) is a method of resuscitation in which venoarterial (VA) extracorporeal membrane oxygenation(ECMO) is initiated during refractory cardiac arrest. ECPR promises to enhance outcomes after cardiac arrest by

Effect of mattress deflection on CPR quality assessment for older children and adolescents [PDF]

, 2009
Appropriate chest compression (CC) depth is associated with improved CPR outcome. CCs provided in hospital are often conducted on a compliant mattress. The objective was to quantify the effect of mattress compression on the assessment of CPR quality in ...

Serious outcomes among emergency department patients with presyncope: A systematic review

Academic Emergency Medicine, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Syncope is transient loss of consciousness, and in presyncope, patients experience same prodromal symptoms without losing consciousness. While studies have extensively reported the risk of serious outcome among emergency department (ED) syncope, the outcome for patients with presyncope and their management are not well studied.

Managing Acute Behavioural Disturbance in Perinatal Women: A Systematic and State of the Art Review of Guidelines

Australian and New Zealand Journal of Obstetrics and Gynaecology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Guidelines for managing acute behavioural disturbance typically exclusively focus on care for adults in mental health and related settings, how this should be adapted to safely manage in pregnancy and the early postpartum including in settings such as maternity wards is less clear. Aims To undertake a systematic and state of the art

Targeted temperature management alleviates post-resuscitation myocardial dysfunction by inhibiting ferroptosis

Cell Death Discovery
Targeted temperature management (TTM) is a vital intervention for cardiac arrest survivors to mitigate post-resuscitation myocardial dysfunction (PRMD). However, the optimal temperature for TTM remains a topic of debate.

Open-chest cardiopulmonary resuscitation versus closed-chest cardiopulmonary resuscitation in patients with cardiac arrest: a systematic review and meta-analysis

Scandinavian Journal of Trauma, Resuscitation and Emergency Medicine, 2019
Background Cardiopulmonary resuscitation is the most urgent and critical step in the rescue of patients with cardiac arrest. However, only about 10% of patients with out-of-hospital cardiac arrest survive to discharge.
