Introduction: The highest cause of death is cardiac arrest. Proper manual chest compression will increase survival aim this study was to know the implementation compressions for arrest patient in Indonesia.Methods: This used a descriptive quantitative design. samples were nurse and code blue team when performing 74 patients experiencing sample have body mass index (BMI) > 20. Research conduc...

conclusions: normothermia and hemodynamic stability are the most important factors which help to reduce fetal loss during open heart surgery in pregnancy. the fetus has an auto-regulation which comes into play when the mother is experiencing shock. objectives: the aim of this study was to report our experience with urgent cardiopulmonary bypass carried out in early pregnancy and to analyze fact...

Background This report describes a case of transient cardiac arrest in a child with Down syndrome. The cardiac arrest occurred during induction of anesthesia with sevoflurane. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first such report. Case presentation A 14-year-old boy was scheduled to undergo dental treatment under general anesthesia because of his mental disorder. He had congenital atria...

Triple-quantum-filtered (TQF) Na nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) without chemical shift reagent is used to investigate Na derangement in isolated crystalloid perfused rat hearts during St. Thomas cardioplegic (CP) arrest. The extracellular Na contribution to the NMR TQF signal of a rat heart is found to be 73 +/- 5%, as determined by wash-out experiments at different moments of ischemia and re...

COVID-19 patients may experience with a wide range of cardiovascular complications during infection: obstructive and non-obstructive coronary artery disease-acute syndrome (myocardial infarction type 1 2), arterial or venous thromboembolic diseases, myocarditis, pericarditis, pericardial effusion, stress cardiomyopathy (Takotsubo syndrome), arrhythmias, acute heart failure, shock sudden cardiac...

Management of patients in cardiopulmonary arrest is challenging and can be resource consuming. Outcomes continue to be poor and physicians may feel a sense of futility when running a resuscitation. Bedside ultrasound has been utilized to guide resuscitations, diagnose correctable cardiac pathology leading to an arrest and has proved to have a prognostic value when utilized in the initial stages...

Four of 220 patients without bifasicular block (complete right bundle branch block and left anterior hemiblock) or transient complete heart block immediately after surgery had an unexpected cardiac arrest one to 15 years after satisfactory surgical repair of tetralogy of Fallot. The postoperative electrocardiograms (ECG) revealed complete right bundle branch block in two patients and no intrave...

The heart-forming mesoderm in Xenopus embryos lies adjacent to the source of the first embryonic population of macrophages. Such macrophages underlie the bilateral myocardial cell layers as they converge to form a linear heart tube. We have examined whether such macrophages participate in early cardiac morphogenesis, combining morpholino oligonucleotides that inhibit macrophage differentiation ...

We report a detailed case of type 2 TS due to p.(Gly402Ser) mutation in exon 8 the CACNA1C gene. The patient shows marked prolongation repolarization with mean QTc 540 ms. He no structural heart disease, syndactyly, or cranio-facial abnormalities. However, he developmental delays, without autism, and dental cardiac phenotype is very severe, resuscitated arrest at 2.5 years age, followed by 26 a...

objective: cardiopulmonary resuscitation (cpr) has been known in its present form since 1960. different studies have reported variable outcomes among different countries. therefore, the purpose of this study was to assess the rate of cpr success and the survival rate in managing cardiac arrest among patients in an educational medical center. methods: this cross-sectional study was performed at ...
