Epinephrine for prehospital cardiac arrest with non-shockable rhythm
Cardiopulmonary arrest research and guidelines have generally focused on the treatment and management of ventricular fibrillation and pulseless ventricular fibrillation (electrical shockable rhythms). Less investigation has been done on the subpopulation of cardiopulmonary arrest victims that present with non-shockable rhythms. In a new paper, Goto, Maeda, and Goto present evidence that early u...
متن کاملSubsequent Shockable Rhythm During Out‐of‐Hospital Cardiac Arrest in Children With Initial Non‐Shockable Rhythms: A Nationwide Population‐Based Observational Study
BACKGROUND The effect of a subsequent treated shockable rhythm during cardiopulmonary resuscitation on the outcome of children who suffer out-of-hospital cardiac arrest with initial nonshockable rhythm is unclear. We hypothesized that subsequent treated shockable rhythm in children with out-of-hospital cardiac arrest would improve survival with favorable neurological outcomes (Cerebral Performa...
متن کاملThe Aassociation between Pre-Cardiac Arrest Comorbidity and Unsuccessful Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation in Patients with Cardiac Arrest
Background and Objective: Patients suffering from cardiac arrest (CA) have poor prognosis and survival. The association of pre-arrest comorbidity with unsuccessful resuscitation in patients with CA is far from clear. The aim of the present study was to investigate the association between pre-existing comorbidity and unsuccessful resuscitation following CA in Iranian patients. Materials and Met...
متن کاملLife-saving automated external defibrillation in a teenager: a case report
BACKGROUND Adolescent sudden death during sport participation is commonly due to cardiac causes. Survival is more likely when an automated external defibrillator (AED) is used soon after collapse. CASE PRESENTATION We describe a case of sudden death in a 14 year old boy with two remarkable points, successful resuscitation at school using an AED and diagnosis of arrhythmogenic right ventricula...
متن کاملIs your AED ready to shock?

In March of this year, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration announced its intent to require new AEDs and accessories to go through a more rigorous approval process. The action is in response to recalls by manufacturers, documented failures, and adverse even...
