The effects of repetitive electric cardiac stimulation in dogs with normal hearts, complete heart block and experimental cardiac arrest [PDF]

open access: bronze, 1955
Direct cardiac stimulation was conducted in the open chest. In normal animals, auricular stimulation at frequencies faster than the spontaneous rate caused little change in vascular pressures or cardiac output.

Complete Revascularisation in Impella-Supported Infarct-Related Cardiogenic Shock Patients Is Associated With Improved Mortality

open access: yesFrontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2021
Background: Acute myocardial infarction-related cardiogenic shock (AMI-CS) still has high likelihood of in-hospital mortality. The only trial evidence currently available for the intra-aortic balloon pump showed no benefit of its routine use in AMI-CS ...

Sudden cardiac arrest in patients with schizophrenia: A population-based study of resuscitation outcomes and pre-existing cardiovascular disease

open access: yesInternational Journal of Cardiology: Heart & Vasculature, 2022
Objective: Individuals with schizophrenia carry a high burden of cardiovascular disease and elevated rates of sudden cardiac arrest (SCA), but little published data is available regarding survival from SCA in this population.

Risk Factors for Sudden Cardiac Arrest Among Hispanic or Latino Adults in Southern California: Ventura PRESTO and HCHS/SOL

open access: yesJournal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease, 2023
Background Out‐of‐hospital sudden cardiac arrest (SCA) is a leading cause of mortality, making prevention of SCA a public health priority. No studies have evaluated predictors of SCA risk among Hispanic or Latino individuals in the United States. Methods

A survival after cardiac arrest during CT scan: The critical imaging findings

open access: yesRadiology Case Reports, 2022
It obtains infrequently hemodynamic images of patients undergoing impending cardiac arrest. Heart pump failure causes blood stasis in the venous system and organs, which is demonstrated on imaging by the deposition and layering of contrast in the veins ...

Intra-arrest transesophageal echocardiography during cardiopulmonary resuscitation [PDF]

open access: yesClinical and Experimental Emergency Medicine, 2022
Determining the cause of cardiac arrest (CA) and the heart status during CA is crucial for its treatment. Transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) is an imaging method that facilitates close observation of the heart without interfering with cardiopulmonary

Performance of an automated ultrasound device in identifying and tracing the heart in porcine cardiac arrest

open access: yesThe Ultrasound Journal, 2022
Background While intra-arrest echocardiography can be used to guide and monitor chest compression quality, it is not currently feasible on the scene of out-of-hospital cardiac arrests. Rapid and automated sonographic localization of the heart may provide
