A Randomized Trial of Epinephrine in Out‐of‐Hospital Cardiac Arrest

New England Journal of Medicine, 2018
BACKGROUND Concern about the use of epinephrine as a treatment for out‐of‐hospital cardiac arrest led the International Liaison Committee on Resuscitation to call for a placebocontrolled trial to determine whether the use of epinephrine is safe and ...

Neurological Prognostication of Post-Cardiac-Arrest Coma Patients Using EEG Data: A Dynamic Survival Analysis Framework with Competing Risks [PDF]

arXiv, 2023
Patients resuscitated from cardiac arrest who enter a coma are at high risk of death. Forecasting neurological outcomes of these patients (the task of neurological prognostication) could help with treatment decisions. In this paper, we propose, to the best of our knowledge, the first dynamic framework for neurological prognostication of post-cardiac ...

Gender Disparities in Out-of-hospital Cardiac Arrests [PDF]

Cureus, 2018
Background Despite advances in resuscitation science and public health, out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OOHCA) has an average survival rate of only 12% nationwide, compared to 24.8% of patients who suffer from cardiac arrest while in hospital. Additionally, gender is an important element of human health, and there is a clear pattern for gender-specific

A novel approach for the diagnosis of ventricular tachycardia based on phase space reconstruction of ECG [PDF]

International Journal of Cardiology, Volume 172, Issue 1, March 2014, Pages e31-e33, 2014
Ventricular arrhythmias comprise a group of disorders which manifest clinically in a variety of ways from ventricular premature beats (VPB) and no sustained ventricular tachycardia (in healthy subjects) to sudden cardiac death due to ventricular tachyarrhythmia in patients with and/or without structural heart disease.
