A dvanced cardiovascular life support (ACLS) impacts mul- tiple key links in the chain of survival that include interventions to prevent cardiac arrest, treat and improve outcomes patients who achieve return spontaneous circulation (ROSC) after arrest.ACLS aimed at preventing arrest airway management, ventilation support, treatment bradyarrhythmias tachyarrhythmias.For ACLS build on basic (BLS) foundation immediate recognition activation emergency response system, early CPR, rapid...
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...
Despite intensive efforts over many years, the United States has made limited progress in improving rates of survival from out-of-hospital cardiac arrest. Recently, national organizations, such as American Heart Association, have focused on promoting bystander cardiopulmonary resuscitation, use automated external defibrillators, and other performance improvement efforts.Using Cardiac Arrest Registry to Enhance Survival (CARES), a prospective clinical registry, we identified 70 027 U.S....
Out-of-hospital cardiac arrest is associated with low survival, but early cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) and defibrillation can improve outcomes if more widely adopted.To examine temporal changes in bystander first-responder efforts before arrival of the emergency medical services (EMS) following statewide initiatives to North Carolina from 2010-2013 association between survival neurological outcome.We studied 4961 patients out-of-hospital for whom was attempted who were identified...
For persons who have an out-of-hospital cardiac arrest, the probability of receiving bystander-initiated cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) may be influenced by neighborhood characteristics.We analyzed surveillance data prospectively submitted from 29 U.S. sites to Cardiac Arrest Registry Enhance Survival between October 1, 2005, and December 31, 2009. The in which each arrest occurred was determined census-tract data. We classified neighborhoods as high-income or low-income on basis a...
Although previous studies have shown marked variation in out-of-hospital cardiac arrest survival across US regions, factors underlying this remain incompletely explained. Using data from the Cardiac Arrest Registry to Enhance Survival, we identified 96 662 adult patients with 132 counties. We used hierarchical regression models examine county-level rates of and functional recovery (defined as Cerebral Performance Category score 1 or 2) examined contribution demographics, characteristics,...
Recent reports from communities severely affected by the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic found lower rates of sustained return spontaneous circulation (ROSC) for out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA). Whether has OHCA outcomes more broadly is unknown.To assess association between COVID-19 and outcomes, including in areas with low moderate burden.This study used a large US registry OHCAs to compare during period March 16 through April 30, 2020, those 2019. Cases were geocoded...
Differences in the incidence of cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) provided by bystanders contribute to survival disparities among persons with out-of-hospital cardiac arrest. It is critical understand whether bystander CPR witnessed arrests at home and public settings differs according race or ethnic group person arrest order inform interventions.
Out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) is an important global public health issue, but its epidemiology and outcomes in low-income middle-income countries remain largely unknown. We aim to comprehensively describe the incidence, process of care, OHCA China.In prospective, multicentre, population-based Baseline Investigation Cardiac Arrest (BASIC-OHCA) registry study, participating sites were selected from both urban rural areas all seven geographical regions across China. All patients with...
There are few data on the prevalence or outcome of bystander cardiopulmonary resuscitation (BCPR) in children 18 years and younger.To characterize BCPR pediatric out-of-hospital cardiac arrests (OHCAs).This analysis Cardiac Arrest Registry to Enhance Survival database investigated nontraumatic OHCAs younger from January 2013 through December 2015.Bystander CPR, which included conventional CPR compression-only CPR.Overall survival neurologically favorable survival, defined as a Cerebral...
Little is known about survival after out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) in children. We examined whether OHCA children differs by age, sex, and race, as well recent trends.Within the prospective Cardiac Arrest Registry to Enhance Survival (CARES), we identified (age <18 years) with an from October 2005 December 2013. hospital discharge age (categorized infants [0 1 year], younger [2 7 years], older [8 12 teenagers [13 17 years]), race was assessed using modified Poisson regression....
Bystander cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) is associated with increased survival from cardiac arrest, yet bystander CPR rates are low in many communities. The overall prevalence of training the United States and individual-level disparities unknown. We sought to measure national hypothesized that older age lower socioeconomic status would be independently a likelihood training.We administered cross-sectional telephone survey nationally representative adult sample. assessed demographics...
Understanding temporal differences in the incidence and outcomes of out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) has important implications for developing preventative strategies optimizing systems OHCA care.We studied 18 588 OHCAs presumed origin patients aged ≥18 years who received resuscitative efforts by emergency medical services (EMS) were enrolled Cardiac Arrest Registry to Enhance Survival (CARES) from October 1, 2005, December 31, 2010. We evaluated variability survival hospital discharge....
