Dynamics of Pulsed Flow in an Elastic Tube [PDF]
Internal haemorrhage, often leading to cardio-vascular arrest happens to be one of the prime sources of high fatality rates in mammals. We propose a simplistic model of fluid flow to specify the location of the haemorrhagic spots, which, if located accurately, could be operated upon leading to a possible cure.

Duration of Preoperative Electrocardiographic QRS Complex and the Incidence of Heart Arrest after Aorto Coronary Bypass Surgery [PDF]
Sudden heart arrest (HA) in the early phase after aorto coronary bypass surgery represents a serious event necessitating resuscitation, and for those who survive usually also an extra stay in the coronary care unit.

Focused Cardiac Ultrasound Diagnosis of Cor Triatriatum Sinistrum in Pediatric Cardiac Arrest [PDF]
Cardiac arrest in the adolescent population secondary to congenital heart disease (CHD) is rare. Focused cardiac ultrasound (FoCUS) in the emergency department (ED) can yield important clinical information, aid in resuscitative efforts during cardiac ...

Heart rate variability predicts cell death and inflammatory responses to global cerebral ischemia [PDF]
This study examines the relationship between autonomic functioning and neuropathology following cardiac arrest in mice. Within 24h of cardiac arrest, parasympathetic cardiac control, as indexed by heart rate variability (HRV), rapidly decreases. By day 7

Characteristics of Patients with Spontaneous Coronary Artery Dissection Presenting with Sudden Cardiac Arrest in the United States and the Potential Role of Implantable Cardioverter Defibrillator Therapy [PDF]
Background: Spontaneous coronary artery dissection (SCAD) is a disease entity that often occurs in young, healthy women and can cause life-threatening ventricular arrhythmias and sudden cardiac arrest.

CPR flow to prime the ischemic heart during cardiac arrest? [PDF]
Cardiac arrest is unique among cardiac ischemic syndromes in that all circulation must be generated external to the heart. Although, chest compressions deliver limited blood flow, it may be possible to take advantage of this cardiopulmonary resuscitation

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 ...
