Non-invasive diffuse optical neuromonitoring during cardiopulmonary resuscitation predicts return of spontaneous circulation [PDF]

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2021
AbstractNeurologic injury is a leading cause of morbidity and mortality following pediatric cardiac arrest. In this study, we assess the feasibility of quantitative, non-invasive, frequency-domain diffuse optical spectroscopy (FD-DOS) neuromonitoring during cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR), and its predictive utility for return of spontaneous ...

Age Alone May Not Predict Immediate Survival Outcome in Sudden and Unexpected In-hospital Cardiac Arrest

open access: yesInternational Journal of Gerontology, 2012
Background: It is unknown whether outcome after unexpected in-hospital cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) differs in the elderly (≥ 65 years) compared to the non-elderly (< 65 years).

Management of Mechanical Ventilation in Decompensated Heart Failure. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Mechanical ventilation (MV) is a life-saving intervention for respiratory failure, including decompensated congestive heart failure. MV can reduce ventricular preload and afterload, decrease extra-vascular lung water, and decrease the work of breathing ...

Increased QT Dispersion Is Linked to Worse Outcomes in Patients Hospitalized for Out‐of‐Hospital Cardiac Arrest

open access: yesJournal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease, 2020
Background The incidence and mortality of out‐of‐hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) remains high, but predicting outcomes is challenging. Being able to better assess prognosis of hospitalized patients after return of spontaneous circulation would enable ...

Effects of Polyethylene Glycol‐20k on Coronary Perfusion Pressure and Postresuscitation Myocardial and Cerebral Function in a Rat Model of Cardiac Arrest

open access: yesJournal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease, 2020
Background Epinephrine increases the rate of return of spontaneous circulation. However, it increases severity of postresuscitation myocardial and cerebral dysfunction and reduces duration of survival.

Ulinastatin attenuates oxidation, inflammation and neural apoptosis in the cerebral cortex of adult rats with ventricular fibrillation after cardiopulmonary resuscitation

open access: yesClinics, 2013
OBJECTIVE: The role of Ulinastatin in neuronal injury after cardiopulmonary resuscitation has not been elucidated. We aim to evaluate the effects of Ulinastatin on inflammation, oxidation, and neuronal injury in the cerebral cortex after cardiopulmonary ...

ROSC rates and live discharge rates after cardiopulmonary resuscitation by different CPR teams - a retrospective cohort study

open access: yesBMC Anesthesiology, 2017
Background Previous studies have reported that the quality of cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) is closely associated with patient outcomes. The aim of this study was to compare patient CPR outcomes across resident, emergency medicine, and rapid ...
