Ventilation and Oxygenation During and After Adult Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation: Changing Paradigms
Abstract Cardiac arrest (CA) remains a major cause of death despite advancements in cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR), post-resuscitation care, and international efforts to develop evidence-based guidelines. Effectively managing ventilation and oxygenation..
Read MoreAbstract OBJECTIVES: Extracorporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitation (ECPR) serves as a lifesaving intervention for patients experiencing refractory cardiac arrest. With its expanding usage, there’s a burgeoning focus on improving patient outcomes through..
Read MoreAbstract Background The initial rhythm is a known predictor of survival in extracorporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitation (ECPR) patients. However, the effect of the rhythm at hospital admission on outcomes in these..
Read MoreAbstract Venoarterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VA-ECMO) support is a lifesaving tool in cardiovascular care, providing excellent hemodynamic assistance for numerous indications, such as cardiogenic shock or periprocedural support in patients..
Read MoreAbstract With a global increase in the demand for organ transplants, the organ shortage crisis has taken a turn for the worse, as the supply of available organs remains insufficient..
Read MoreAbstract Background Extracorporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitation (ECPR) may reduce mortality and improve neurological outcomes in patients with cardiac arrest. We updated our existing meta-analysis and trial sequential analysis to further evaluate..
Read MoreAbstract Children with cardiac disease are at a higher risk of cardiac arrest as compared to healthy children. Delivering adequate cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) can be challenging due to anatomic characteristics,..
Read MoreAbstract Background In adults with refractory out-of-hospital cardiac arrest, when conventional cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) alone does not achieve return of spontaneous circulation, extracorporeal CPR is attempted to restore perfusion and..
Read MoreAbstract Extracorporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitation (E-CPR) is the establishment of veno-arterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) during ongoing cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR). E-CPR is the last rescue therapy when, despite high-quality conventional CPR,..
