Herein, we present 4 cases of pneumothoraces occurring in the setting of automated mechanical CPR (AM-CPR) in a 2-month period since incorporating mechanical devices into our resuscitation program. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

• Heart Disease

  METHODS: Between 1984 and 2015, all patients with congenital heart disease who received in or out-of-hospital CPR were identified from the database of congenital heart disease from the University Hospitals Leuven. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

  A large percentage of people who die of heart disease suffer from a sudden “electrical chaos” in the heart, ventricular fibrillation, leading to cardiac arrest. [kvalitetsregister.se]

  Results: 75% (776/1043) of patients had at least one chronic health condition and 51% (529/1043) had prior clinically recognised heart disease. [doi.org]

• Chest Pain

  The pain is often described as "an elephant sitting on my chest" Pain or discomfort that spreads to the shoulders, neck, arms, or jaw Chest pain that gets worse Chest pain that doesn't go away after rest or by taking prescription heart medicine Chest [uhhospitals.org]

  He visited a local hospital's emergency department complaining of chest pain and dyspnea that had started 3 days earlier. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

  In 1993 The American Heart Association began recommending a 325 mg Aspirin at the onset of chest pain or other symptoms of a severe heart attack. [snopes.com]

• Conjunctival Petechiae

  Although potentially sinister findings, neck injury and conjunctival petechiae may also be seen in patients who have undergone CPR. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

• Upper Back Pain

  He was diagnosed with variant angina, and subsequent imaging for evaluation of upper back pain revealed fractures of the fifth through eighth thoracic vertebrae. Multiple thoracic vertebral fractures are extremely rare. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

• Musculoskeletal Pain

  This imbalance of forces could determine the onset of poor posture, musculoskeletal pain, and long-term injuries in the rescuer. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Autopsy and histological workup in all three cases showed multiple circumscribed calcified and necrotic areas in progressive stages of organization within the myocardium. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

• Scedosporium

  Here, we report on a patient who suffered a cardiac arrest in hospital and was rescued with ECMO, but who subsequently developed an infection with Scedosporium apiospermum. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Finally, two of the five PE patients treated with ECLS were discharged from inpatient treatment without neurological dysfunction. The duration of ECLS therapy depends on the patient's condition. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Provide a detailed description of the time lapse and treatment outside the hospital. Register the effects of treatment in the form of short- and long-term survival. [kvalitetsregister.se]

Congenital chromosomal abnormality with trisomy 13 is known to be associated with poor life prognosis and lethal. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

However, the decision to transport a patient resides with the responsible emergency physician who has to evaluate the prognosis for the patient on an individual basis. [thieme-connect.com]

Our main objective was to determine the prognosis of cardiology patients after cardiorespiratory arrest and to assess whether this may have an impact on their desire for resuscitation. [revespcardiol.org]

For arrests of respiratory etiology, COCPR was administered in 9 of 150 patients (6%; 95% CI, 2.2%-9.8%). [doi.org]

Cardiac arrest can be subdivided into asphyxial and non asphyxial etiologies. An asphyxia arrest is caused by lack of oxygen in the blood and occurs in drowning and choking victims and in other circumstances. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Objective:: To study epidemiology and prognostic factors associated with cardiac arrest in the intensive care unit (ICU) in an average Brazilian center. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Key Words: cardiopulmonary resuscitation complications dispatcher epidemiology morbidity Received April 9, 2009; accepted September 21, 2009. [web.archive.org]

Topics of interest include the epidemiology of sudden death; management of ventilation; chest compression technique training; public access defibrillation; drug delivery during CPR; the latest drug therapies; and cardiac arrest in disease, pregnancy, [springer.com]

However, the pathophysiology of the delayed return of spontaneous circulation remains enigmatic. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

This finding suggests that chronic conditions influence arrest pathophysiology and in turn could help guide resuscitation care. [doi.org]

To prevent neurological damage, therapeutic hypothermia was used, and she was cooled for 24 hours. After therapeutic hypothermia, her Glasgow coma score was 15, fortunately no sequela appeared. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
