Buoyancy‐assisted versus conventional drain‐then‐lift methods for bathtub extrication: A randomized crossover simulation study

Hong Kong Journal of Emergency Medicine, Volume 33, Issue 3, June 2026.
For bathtub cardiac arrests, buoyancy‐assisted extrication without draining is faster and more successful than the conventional method. This universally applicable technique for lay rescuers facilitates quicker initiation of cardiopulmonary resuscitation and challenges current public guidelines to first drain the tub.

Serum lactate/albumin ratio at hospital arrival and neurological outcomes in patients who received targeted temperature management after out‐of‐hospital cardiac arrest: A nationwide, multicenter, observational study

Hong Kong Journal of Emergency Medicine, Volume 33, Issue 3, June 2026.
Abstract Background A lower serum lactate/albumin ratio has been linked to favorable outcomes in critically ill patients. Objective We investigated whether the serum lactate/albumin ratio could predict the likelihood of benefiting from targeted temperature management (TTM) after out‐of‐hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA). Methods Using a nationwide Japanese
