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....
Return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC) following cardiopulmonary resuscitation from cardiac arrest (CA) depends on numerous variables. The aim this study was to develop a score predict the initial outcome—the RACA (ROSC after arrest) score. Based 5471 prospectively registered out-of-hospital CAs patients between 1998 and 2008 within German Resuscitation Registry, calculation performed by multivariate logistic regression analysis with ROSC as outcome variable. probability defined 1/(1 +...
Surgical stress index (SSI), a novel multivariate index, has recently been proven to react well surgical nociceptive stimuli and analgesic drug concentration changes during general anesthesia. We investigated the feasibility of application SSI for guidance remifentanil administration propofol-remifentanil anesthesia.Eighty patients scheduled elective ear-nose-throat surgery were randomized into two groups, SSI-guided analgesia group (SSI group) standard practice (control group). In both...
ith a mean annual incidence of 84 events per 100 000 population (range, 28-244), out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) is one the commonest causes death in Germany and Europe (1).Approximately 50% patients with sudden die without any attempt being made at resuscitation, since either event not observed by bystanders or emergency medical services (EMS) reach scene too late.The resuscitation on average 49 19-104) (1-6).EMS response time an important planning factor for services.A...
Abstract Introduction Mild therapeutic hypothermia (MTH) has been shown to result in better neurological outcome after cardiopulmonary resuscitation. Percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) may also be beneficial patients out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA). Methods A selected cohort study of 2,973 prospectively documented adult OHCA within the German Resuscitation Registry between 2004 and 2010. Data were analyzed by backwards stepwise binary logistic regression identify impact MTH PCI...
Cardiac arrest following trauma occurs infrequently compared with cardiac aetiology. Within the German Resuscitation Registry a traumatic cause is documented in about 3% of patients. Regarding national Trauma Registry, only few these patients survive. The aim present study was to analyze outcome cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) after by combining data from two different large registries Germany.This includes 368 (2.8%) out 13,329 registered within whereby 3,673 and successful CPR served...
Sudden cardiac arrest is one of the most frequent causes death in world. In highly qualified emergency medical service (EMS) systems, including well trained physicians, spontaneous circulation may be restored up to 53% patients at least until admission hospital. Compared with these EMS other systems markedly lower success rates are observed. These data clearly show that there considerable differences between concerning treatment following and resuscitation, although all international...
This work provides an epidemiological overview of out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) in children Germany between 2007 and 2021. We wanted to identify modifiable factors associated with survival.Data from the German Resuscitation Registry (GRR) were used, we included patients registered 1st January 31st December aged > 7 days 17 years, where cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) was started, treatment continued by emergency medical services (EMS). Incidences descriptive analyses are...
Between 1 and 31% of patients suffering out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) survive to discharge from hospital. International studies have shown that the level care provided by admitting hospital determines survival for OHCA. These data may only be partially transferable German medical system where responders are in-field emergency physicians. The present study influence physician's choice on patient outcome after OHCA in a large urban setting.All collected Resuscitation Registry city...
There is substantial variation in the incidence, likelihood of attempted resuscitation and outcomes from out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) across Europe. A European, multi-centre study provides opportunity to uncover differences throughout Europe may help find explanations for these differences. Results also have potential support development quality benchmarking between European Emergency Medical Services (EMS). This prospective involves 27 different countries. It a common Utstein-based...
Out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) is a major health issue throughout Europe. Due to limited knowledge about the epidemiology of OHCA in Europe, 2011, European Registry Cardiac Arrest (EuReCa) project was established. Initially based on existing resuscitation registries few countries, network expanded and October 2014 EuReCa ONE study launched, bringing together 27 countries showing that appropriate data acquisition (10,682 cases submitted) feasible within TWO conducted from December 2017...
The global pandemic provoked by the SARS-CoV-2 in recent years has presented new challenges to health care systems. These systems have been stressed until and beyond limit of capacity not only terms personnel such as practitioners, nurses paramedics but also resources ambulances, mechanical respirators beds intensive units.This means that patient transport is one critical tasks when COVID-19 cases are increasing a certain region balance resource availability.In this context, simulation...
