Cardiopulmonary arrest: care after return of spontaneous circulation
2023Research Question: What are the procedures to be taken during the care of a patient after the return of spontaneous circulation as a result of a Cardiorespiratory arrest? Objective: To identify in the literature what care should be applied in patient care in the face of the return of spontaneous circulation after cardiorespiratory arrest. Hypothesis:

Tenecteplase and Return of Spontaneous Circulation After Refractory Cardiopulmonary Arrest
Southern Medical Journal, 2004Even with the benefit of cardiopulmonary resuscitation, the prognosis of cardiac arrest remains poor. Multiple case series describe survival with the use of thrombolytic therapy for refractory cardiac arrest. Presumably thrombolysis treats that subset of cardiac arrest cases resulting from fulminant pulmonary embolism, or perhaps massive myocardial ...

Hypoglycemic cardiac arrest and rapid return-of-spontaneous circulation (ROSC) with dextrose
The American Journal of Emergency Medicine, 2020Hypoglycemia was part of the "H's and T's" in the 2005 American Heart Association ACLS guidelines for reversible causes of cardiac arrest but was removed in subsequent editions. We present a case of return of spontaneous circulation in a patient with cardiac arrest after administration of dextrose for hypoglycemia. Routine administration of dextrose to

Mild induced hypothermia after return of spontaneous circulation
Emergency Nurse, 2015There is evidence to suggest that the use of mild induced hypothermia (MIH) in patients who have had cardiac arrest can improve neurological prognosis and long-term survival to discharge rates, although there is some debate in the literature on the efficacy of the procedure.

Emergency medicine updates: Managing the patient with return of spontaneous circulation
The American Journal of Emergency MedicinePatients with return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC) following cardiac arrest are a critically important population requiring close monitoring and targeted interventions in the emergency department (ED). Therefore, it is important for emergency clinicians to be aware of the current evidence regarding the management of this condition.This paper ...

Cardiac Arrest Survival Is Rare Without Prehospital Return of Spontaneous Circulation
Prehospital Emergency Care, 2012Emergency medical services (EMS) are crucial in the management of out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA). Despite accepted termination-of-resuscitation criteria, many patients are transported to the hospital without achieving field return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC).We examine field ROSC influence on OHCA survival to hospital discharge in two ...

Abstract 319: Return of Spontaneous Circulation is Not Affected by Gastric Distension
Circulation, 2018Introduction: Gastric distension is a common complication after CPR and is caused by excess gastric inflation. Consequently, regurgitation of gastric contents and diaphragmatic eventration with increased intrathoracic pressure can occur, which may lead to anoxia and ventricular diastolic dysfunction.

Capnography as a predictor of the return of spontaneous circulation.
Emergency medical services, 2005EtCO2 monitoring is a valuable tool for clinical management of patients in cardiac arrest, near-arrest and post-arrest. During cardiac arrest, EtCO2 levels fall abruptly at the onset of cardiac arrest, increase after the onset of effective CPR and return to normal at return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC). During effective CPR, end-tidal CO2 has been

Do not move player requiring resuscitation on field until return of spontaneous circulation
BMJ, 2012The recent case of the footballer who had a sudden cardiac arrest on the football pitch highlights key points regarding field of play resuscitation.1 The decision about when to move patients from the field of play, particularly if they remain in cardiorespiratory arrest, …
