The American Heart Association Mission: Lifeline program objectives are to improve the quality of care and outcomes for patients with ST-segment-elevation myocardial infarction. Every minute delay in treatment adversely affects 1-year mortality. Transfer safely timely hospitals primary percutaneous coronary intervention capability is needed outcomes. But times continue show delays, especially during interhospital transfers. A simple 3-step process an "Call 9-1-1" protocol may expedite this...
Background The Circulation Improving Resuscitation Care ( CIRC ) Trial found equivalent survival in adult out‐of‐hospital cardiac arrest OHCA patients who received integrated load‐distributing band CPR iA ‐ compared to manual (M‐ ). We hypothesized that as chest compression duration increased, provided a benefit when M‐CPR. Methods A pre‐planned secondary analysis of presumed etiology from the randomized trial. Chest compressions was defined total number minutes spent on during resuscitation...
Mild therapeutic hypothermia is argued being beneficial for outcome after cardiac arrest.Retrospective analysis of Circulation Improving Resuscitation Care (CIRC) trial data to assess if cooling 33 ± 1 °C core temperature had an association with survival. Of 4231 adult, out-of-hospital arrests presumed origin initially enrolled, eligibility criteria were met by 1812. Logistic regression was undertaken in a stepwise fashion account the impact on each significant difference and variable...
Background: Reports of pulseless ventricular tachycardia (VT) or fibrillation (VF) converting to an organized rhythm without defibrillator use are rare. We wish report a series such cases in the randomized Circulation Improving Resuscitation Care (CIRC) trial comparing outcome between integrated AutoPulse CPR (iA-CPR) and Manual-CPR (M-CPR) patients with out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) presumed etiology. Methods: Defibrillator ECGs were studied determine one minute after defibrillation...
Background: There is lack of evidence for fixed or escalating shock energy levels impact on survival to hospital discharge during CPR. According the 2010 CPR consensus “maintaining same initial level subsequent shocks acceptable. It reasonable increase when possible.” We studied success and with 360 Joules (J) versus 200 J shocks, in patients Circulation Improving Resuscitation Care (CIRC) trial. Methods: Initial rhythm, pre-shock rhythm 5 seconds after shock, number were recorded. Patients...
Background: Deployment of mechanical chest compression devices is suspected to increase hands-off fraction. A potential benefit defibrillation during compressions, but it unknown if this utilized in the field. Our objectives were compare fraction between manual CPR (M-CPR) and integrated AutoPulse (iA-CPR), determine providers will defibrillate compressions. Methods: An international randomized clinical trial EMS treated adult cardiac arrests origin was conducted at 5 sites from March 2009...
Background: The Circulation Improving Resuscitation Care (CIRC) Trial found equivalent survival in out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) patients who received integrated AutoPulse CPR (iA-CPR) compared to high quality Manual (M-CPR), and no difference neurologic outcome. However, outcome was not available for some patients, discharge location may serve as a proxy objective of this study determine if there is correlation between modified Rankin Scale (mRS) Score at location, the association...
