Cardiac arrest after STEMI and importance of early cardiopulmonary resuscitation in non hospital setting-time is life/myocard [PDF]
ABC: časopis urgentne medicine, 2016 INTRODUCTION: In 23 % of cases, sudden cardiac death can be the first manifestation of coronary artery disease. In these cases pulseless VT and VF are the most common causes for cardiac arrest.

Robust Defibrillator Deployment Under Cardiac Arrest Location Uncertainty via Row-and-Column Generation [PDF]
arXiv, 2015 Sudden cardiac arrest is a significant public health concern. Successful treatment of cardiac arrest is extremely time sensitive, and use of an automated external defibrillator (AED) where possible significantly increases the probability of survival. Placement of AEDs in public locations can improve survival by enabling bystanders to treat victims of ...

Predicting Clinical Deterioration in Hospitals [PDF]
arXiv, 2021 Responding rapidly to a patient who is demonstrating signs of imminent clinical deterioration is a basic tenet of patient care. This gave rise to a patient safety intervention philosophy known as a Rapid Response System (RRS), whereby a patient who meets a pre-determined set of criteria for imminent clinical deterioration is immediately assessed and ...

Early cardiopulmonary resuscitation in out-of-hospital cardiac arrest.
New England Journal of Medicine, 2015 BACKGROUND Three million people in Sweden are trained in cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR). Whether this training increases the frequency of bystander CPR or the survival rate among persons who have out-of-hospital cardiac arrests has been questioned.

Out-of-Hospital Cardiac Arrest –Optimal Management [PDF]
Current Cardiology Reviews, 2014 Out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) has attracted increasing attention over the past years because outcomes have improved impressively lately. The changes for neurological intact outcomes has been poor but several areas have achieved improving survival rates after adjusting their cardiac arrest care.

Costs related to cardiac arrest management: a systematic review protocol
Systematic Reviews, 2017 Background Each year, about 500,000 people suffer a cardiac arrest (either out-of-hospital or in-hospital) in the USA. Although significant improvements in survival have occurred through the implementation of complex high-quality protocols of care ...

Scandinavian Journal of Trauma, Resuscitation and Emergency Medicine, 2021 Background Transthoracic echocardiographic (TTE) indices of myocardial function among survivors of out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) have been related to neurological outcome; however, results are inconsistent. We hypothesized that changes in average

Contactless Cardiac Arrest Detection Using Smart Devices [PDF]
arXiv, 2019 Out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) is a leading cause of death worldwide. Rapid diagnosis and initiation of cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) is the cornerstone of therapy for victims of cardiac arrest. Yet a significant fraction of cardiac arrest victims have no chance of survival because they experience an unwitnessed event, often in the privacy

A Dynamical Systems Approach to Predicting Patient Outcome after Cardiac Arrest [PDF]
Aim: Approximately six million people suffer cardiac arrests worldwide per year with very low survival rates (<1%). Thus, the aim of this study is to estimate the probability of a poor outcome after cardiac arrest. Accurate outcome predictions avoid removing care too soon for patients with potentially good outcomes or continuing care for patients with ...

Extracorporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitation in out-of-hospital cardiac arrest: a registry study.
European Heart Journal, 2019 AIMS Out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) without return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC) despite conventional resuscitation is common and has poor outcomes.
