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

Background Current postresuscitative care after cardiac arrest (CA) does not address the cause of CA. We previously reported that asphyxial CA (ACA) and ventricular fibrillation CA (VFCA) elicit unique injury signatures.

The temperature of the brain can reflect the activity of its different regions, allowing us to evaluate the connections between them. A study involving 111 patients in a vegetative state or minimally conscious state used microwave radiometry to measure ...

In recent years, some studies have generated controversy since they conclude that intraoperatively pharmacological reversal of neuromuscular blockade does not contribute to the reduction of postoperative residual neuromuscular blockade or pulmonary ...

Background Acute mesenteric ischemia (ami) is diagnosed in 1 case per 5,000–15,000 operations associated with elective abdominal surgical intervention and in 1 case of 1,000 emergency laparotomies associated with the acute abdomen clinical features.

Cardiopulmonary resuscitation quality parameters from motion capture data using Differential Evolution fitting of sinusoids [PDF]
Cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) is alongside electrical defibrillation the most crucial countermeasure for sudden cardiac arrest, which affects thousands of individuals every year. In this paper, we present a novel approach including sinusoid models that use skeletal motion data from an RGB-D (Kinect) sensor and the Differential Evolution (DE ...

RETRACTED: Artificial intelligence for emergency medical care
‘Applications of artificial intelligence in emergency medical service’. Abstract There is increasing research into the potential benefits of incorporating artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning algorithms into emergency medical services. AI is finding new applications across a wide range of sectors, one of which is healthcare, where it is ...

Mechanical chest-compression devices: current and future roles [PDF]
Purpose of review: It is recognised that the quality of CPR is an important predictor of outcome from cardiac arrest yet studies consistently demonstrate that the quality of CPR performed in real life is frequently sub-optimal.
