Prediction of cardiac arrest in patients with heart failure in Sweden: a registry study with development of a machine learning model [PDF]

open access: yesBMJ Open
Objective 30-day survival after cardiac arrest is low, 12.4% and 36% for out-of-hospital and in-hospital cardiac arrest, respectively. Heart failure is a known risk condition for cardiac arrest.

Dynamic Risk Trajectories for Sudden Cardiac Arrest: The Role of Recurrent Cardiovascular Events [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease
Background Although cardiovascular events increase sudden cardiac arrest (SCA) risk, the impact of recurrent events on subsequent SCA risk in a contemporary population is unknown.

Autoantibody Signature in Cardiac Arrest [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Background: Cardiac arrest is a tragic event that causes one death roughly every 90 seconds worldwide. Survivors generally undergo a work-up to identify the etiology of arrest. However, 5- 10% of cardiac arrest remain unexplained.

Prehospital randomised assessment of a mechanical compression device in cardiac arrest (PaRAMeDIC) trial protocol [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Background Survival after out-of-hospital cardiac arrest is closely linked to the quality of CPR, but in real life, resuscitation during pre-hospital care and ambulance transport is often suboptimal.

Mechanical versus manual chest compression for out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (PARAMEDIC) : a pragmatic, cluster randomised controlled trial [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Background: Mechanical chest compression devices have the potential to help maintain high-quality cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR), but despite their increasing use, little evidence exists for their effectiveness.

Examination of physiological function and biochemical disorders in a rat model of prolonged asphyxia-induced cardiac arrest followed by cardio pulmonary bypass resuscitation. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
Cardiac arrest induces whole body ischemia, which causes damage to multiple organs particularly the heart and the brain. There is clinical and preclinical evidence that neurological injury is responsible for high mortality and morbidity of patients even ...

Impact of Cardiac Arrest Centers on the Survival of Patients With Nontraumatic Out‐of‐Hospital Cardiac Arrest: A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis

open access: yesJournal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease, 2022
Background The role of cardiac arrest centers (CACs) in out‐of‐hospital cardiac arrest care systems is continuously evolving. Interpretation of existing literature is limited by heterogeneity in CAC characteristics and types of patients transported to ...
