Myocardium tissue changes caused by electrical transthoracic discharges in rats [PDF]
Background Cardiomyocytes cytoarchitecture changes caused by transthoracic countershocks have been focused recently. We aimed to evaluate the effects of electrical discharge application in the mitochondria structure in atrial myocardium of rats.

Slow Codes are symptomatic of ethically and legally inappropriate CPR policies
Abstract Although cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) was initially used very selectively at the discretion of clinicians, the use of CPR rapidly expanded to the point that it was required to be performed on all patients having in‐hospital cardiac arrests, regardless of the underlying condition.

Intra‐arrest blood‐based biomarkers for out‐of‐hospital cardiac arrest: A scoping review
Abstract Objective Blood‐based biomarkers play a central role in the diagnosis and treatment of critically ill patients, yet none are routinely measured during the intra‐arrest phase of out‐of‐hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA). Our objective was to describe methodological aspects, sources of evidence, and gaps in research surrounding intra‐arrest blood ...
