Successful resuscitation from prolonged hypothermic cardiac arrest without extracorporeal life support: a case report

open access: yesJournal of Medical Case Reports, 2019
Background We report a case of successful prolonged cardiopulmonary resuscitation (5 hours and 44 minutes) following severe accidental hypothermia with cardiac arrest treated without rewarming on extracorporeal life support.

Pre-hospital extra-corporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitation

open access: yesScandinavian Journal of Trauma, Resuscitation and Emergency Medicine, 2018
Survival from out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) has remained low despite advances in resuscitation science. Hospital-based extra-corporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitation (ECPR) is a novel use of an established technology that provides greater blood ...

Role of Epinephrine and Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation in the Management of Ischemic Refractory Ventricular Fibrillation

open access: yesJACC: Basic to Translational Science, 2017
Summary: Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) is used in cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) of refractory cardiac arrest. The authors used a 2 × 2 study design to compare ECMO versus CPR and epinephrine versus placebo in a porcine model of ...

Association between neuromuscular blocking agent use and outcomes among out-of-hospital cardiac arrest patients treated with extracorporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitation and target temperature management: A secondary analysis of the SAVE-J II study

open access: yesResuscitation Plus, 2023
Background: Neuromuscular blocking agents are used to control shivering in cardiac arrest patients treated with target temperature management. However, their effect on outcomes in patients treated with extracorporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitation is ...

Extracorporeal Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation in Infants: Outcomes and Predictors of Mortality

open access: yesJournal of Chest Surgery, 2023
Background: Extracorporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitation (E-CPR) plays an indispensable role when resuscitation fails; however, extracorporeal life support (ECLS) in infants is different from that in adults.

Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation for refractory cardiac arrest

open access: yesAnnals of Cardiac Anaesthesia, 2017
Extracorporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitation (ECPR) is the use of rapid deployment venoarterial (VA) extracorporeal membrane oxygenation to support systemic circulation and vital organ perfusion in patients in refractory cardiac arrest not responding to ...

A review of pre-hospital extracorporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitation and its potential application in the North East of England

open access: yesInternational Journal of Emergency Medicine
Patients in the UK who suffer an out-of-hospital cardiac arrest are treated with cardiopulmonary resuscitation in the pre-hospital environment. Current survival outcomes are low in out-of-hospital cardiac arrest.

Successful resuscitation of an elderly man with deep accidental hypothermia using portable extracorporeal circulation in the emergency department: a case report

open access: yesJournal of Medical Case Reports, 2008
Introduction Deep accidental hypothermia (body temperature below 28°C) is rare and has a high mortality rate. Successful resuscitation usually occurs in the young, but a prompt intervention using a portable extracorporeal cardiopulmonary circulation ...
