Outcome after cardiac arrest and cardiopulmonary resuscitation is dependent on critical interventions, particularly early defibrillation, effective chest compressions, advanced life support. Utstein-style definitions reporting templates have been used extensively in published studies of arrest, which has led to greater understanding the elements practice progress toward international consensus science guidelines. Despite development Utstein standardize research reports registries yet be...
Why a Task Force on sudden cardiac deathThis comprehensive, educational document death is an extensive review that was deemed necessary for two reasons: first, major studies have advanced our knowledge of the natural history, risk prediction and evaluation, prevention tachyarrhythmias in patients with coronary artery disease or heart failure; second, rare previously unknown diseases, recognition high more difficult since are either lacking they less likely to be performed. Process followed...
Utstein-style guidelines contribute to improved public health internationally by providing a structured framework with which compare emergency medical services systems. Advances in resuscitation science, new insights into important predictors of outcome from out-of-hospital cardiac arrest, and lessons learned methodological research prompted this review update the 2004 Utstein guidelines. Representatives International Liaison Committee on Resuscitation developed an updated reporting...
The aim of the EuReCa ONE study was to determine incidence, process, and outcome for out hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) throughout Europe.This an international, prospective, multi-centre one-month study. Patients who suffered OHCA during October 2014 were attended and/or treated by Emergency Medical Service (EMS) eligible inclusion in Data extracted from national, regional or local registries.Data on 10,682 confirmed OHCAs 248 regions 27 countries, covering estimated population 174 million....
Informed by a series of systematic reviews, scoping reviews and evidence updates from the International Liaison Committee on Resuscitation, 2021 European Resuscitation Council Guidelines present most up to date evidence-based guidelines for practice resuscitation across Europe. The cover epidemiology cardiac arrest; role that systems play in saving lives, adult basic life support, advanced special circumstances, post care, first aid, neonatal paediatric ethics education.
Abstract Introduction Delirium is a common complication in the intensive care unit. The attention of researchers has shifted from treatment to prevention syndrome necessitating study associated risk factors. Methods In multicenter at one university hospital, two community hospitals and private all consecutive newly admitted adult patients were screened included when reaching Glasgow Coma Scale greater than 10. Nurse assessed for delirium using NEECHAM Confusion Scale. Risk factors covered...
