conclusions no significant differences were observed between electronic learning and lecture-based education in improving interns’ knowledge of cpr drugs. background conventional educational systems seem to be improper throughout the cardiopulmonary resuscitation (cpr) teaching process. the most common causes of failed resuscitation are unfamiliarity with cardiopulmonary resuscitation algorithm...

The Royal College of Anaesthetists, the Royal College of Physicians, the Intensive Care Society and the Resuscitation Council (UK) have published new resuscitation standards. The document provides advice to UK healthcare organisations, resuscitation committees and resuscitation officers on all aspects of the resuscitation service. It includes sections on resuscitation training, resuscitation eq...

Treatment of patients with severe burn injuries is complex, relying on attentive fluid resuscitation, successful management concomitant injuries, prompt wound assessment and closure, early rehabilitation, compassionate psychosocial care. The goal resuscitation to maintain organ perfusion at the lowest possible physiologic cost. This requires careful, hourly titration infusion rate meet individu...

introduction: hospitals are the best ground for providing health promotion and prevention services besides health care services. this study aimed to determine the impact of establishing standards of health promoting hospitals on hospitals' indicators in one of the public hospitals of iran. materials and methods: this research was a case-control study that included fatemieh (case group) and...

Introduction: Awareness of pediatric cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) is obligatory for every graduated medical student. In fact, only correct and effective Cardiopulmonary resuscitation can increase the survival rate of patients with cardiopulmonary arrest and since CPR techniques and maneuvers should be done in a specific way for children, it is important to evaluate the knowledge of pedia...

the patient with head trauma is a challenge for the emergency physician and for the neurosurgeon. currently traumatic brain injury constitutes a public health problem. knowledge of the various supportive therapeutic strategies in the pre-hospital and pre-operative stages is essential for optimal care. the immediate rapid infusion of large volumes of crystalloids to restore blood volume and bloo...

conclusions an insufficient formal education in cpr was registered for all groups, reflecting the lack of familiarity with new cpr methods. a team education, involving doctors and nurses may improve familiarity with cpr and patient outcomes. results the only difference between groups was regarding the male and female ratio, with more male surgeons (45, 55, and 11, p < 0.001). all doctors consid...

OBJECTIVE A multipronged approach to improve vital organ perfusion during cardiopulmonary resuscitation that includes sodium nitroprusside, active compression-decompression cardiopulmonary resuscitation, an impedance threshold device, and abdominal pressure (sodium nitroprusside-enhanced cardiopulmonary resuscitation) has been recently shown to increase coronary and cerebral perfusion pressures...

conclusions ia fluid resuscitation is superior to iv resuscitation in hemorrhagic shock induced cardiac arrest. results while iv rl infusion failed to restore chest motion in mice (n = 5), ia rl infusion restored chest motion in all mice examined (n = 6) (p = 0.0067). in three mice, iv rl infusion after cardiac arrest showed no effect on cc. after failure of venous infusion, ia rl infusion was ...
