Monitoring chest compression rate in automated external defibrillators using the autocorrelation of the transthoracic impedance.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2020
AimHigh-quality chest compressions is challenging for bystanders and first responders to out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA). Long compression pauses and compression rates higher than recommended are common and detrimental to survival.

Displacement of impella post chest compressions

open access: yesHeart Views, 2014
The Impella is a left ventricular assist device which is implanted via the transcutaneous femoral route and is placed across the aortic valve into the left ventricle. We report an interesting case where cardiopulmonary resuscitation was associated with displacement of Impella device.

Effect of Instituting Upper Limits for Chest Compression Depth for Laypersons at Six-months After Chest Compression-Only Training: A Randomized Controlled Simulation Study

open access: yesInternational Journal of First Aid Education, 2020
Context/ research question: Chest compression quality plays a major role in patient outcomes after cardiac arrest. The Japanese cardiopulmonary resuscitation (JRC) guidelines 2015 indicatesthat chest compression depth should be approximately 5 cm but not

Early Clinical, Imaging, and Pathological Characteristics of SRPK3/TTN‐Digenic Myopathy

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective SRPK3/TTN‐digenic myopathy was recently established as a skeletal muscle myopathy caused by digenic inheritance. This study characterizes the early clinical presentation of SRPK3/TTN‐digenic myopathy in one previously reported and seven newly identified pediatric patients.
