Mashup Score: 0Anteroposterior pacer pad position is better than anterolateral for transcutaneous cardiac pacing - 1 year(s) ago
Transcutaneous cardiac pacing (TCP) is a lifesaving procedure for patients with certain types of unstable bradycardia. We aimed to assess the difference in the pacing thresholds between the anteroposterior (AP) and anterolateral (AL) pacer pad positions. The second aim was to characterize the severity of chest wall muscle contractions during TCP.

Mashup Score: 0Is vasopressin superior to adrenaline or placebo in the management of cardiac arrest? A meta-analysis - 1 year(s) ago
Vasopressin is currently recommended in the management of patients with cardiac arrest, but its efficacy is still incompletely established. We systematically reviewed randomized trials comparing vasopressin to control treatment in the management of cardiac arrest in humans and animals. Two human and 33 animal studies were retrieved. At pooled analysis vasopressin appeared equivalent to adrenaline…

Mashup Score: 6Ventilation devices for neonatal resuscitation at birth: a systematic review and meta-analysis - 1 year(s) ago
Initial management of inadequate adaptation to extrauterine life relies on non-invasive respiratory support. Two types of devices are available: fixed pressure devices (FPD; T-pieces or ventilators) and hand driven pressure devices (HDPD; self- or flow-inflating bags). This systematic review and meta-analysis aims to compare clinical outcomes after neonatal resuscitation according to device type.

Mashup Score: 3The Case for Causal Inference Methods in Resuscitation Research - 1 year(s) ago
Two thousand years ago, the Roman poet Ovid stated “Causa latet, vis est notissima” (i.e., the cause is hidden; the effect is visible to all). This may well still be true in resuscitation research. Outcomes following resuscitation after out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) remain dismal, with a survival to hospital discharge rate of less than 20%.[1] The cause of persistently poor neurological…

Mashup Score: 2
Cardiac arrest (CA) is a common reason for admission to the cardiac intensive care unit (CICU), though the relative burden of morbidity, mortality, and resource use between admissions with in-hospital (IH) and out-of-hospital (OH) CA is unknown. We compared characteristics, care patterns, and outcomes of admissions to contemporary CICUs after IHCA or OHCA.

Mashup Score: 0Effect of calcium vs. placebo on long-term outcomes in patients with out-of-hospital cardiac arrest - 2 year(s) ago
The Calcium for Out-of-hospital Cardiac Arrest (COCA) trial was a randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blind trial of calcium for out-of-hospital cardiac arrest. The primary and secondary outcomes have been reported previously. This article describes the long-term outcomes of the trial.

Survival with favorable neurological outcomes is an important indicator of successful resuscitation in out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA). We sought to validate the CaRdiac Arrest Survival Score (CRASS), derived using data from the German Resuscitation Registry, in predicting the likelihood of good neurological outcomes after OHCA in Singapore.

Mashup Score: 4Neurocognitive function following out-of-hospital cardiac arrest: A systematic review - 2 year(s) ago
The primary aim of this review was to investigate neurocognitive outcomes following out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA). Specifically, the focus was on identifying the different neurocognitive domains that are assessed, the measures used, and the level of, and criteria for, impairment.
