Out-of-hospital cardiac arrest is a major health problem associated with poor outcomes. Early recognition and intervention are critical for patient survival. Bystander cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) one factor among many improved survival.To examine temporal changes in bystander attempts survival during 10-year period which several national initiatives were taken to increase rates of improve advanced care.Patients out-of-hospital was attempted identified between 2001 2010 the nationwide...
BackgroundRemote ischaemic conditioning with transient ischaemia and reperfusion applied to the arm has been shown reduce myocardial infarct size in patients ST-elevation infarction (STEMI) undergoing primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PPCI). We investigated whether remote could incidence of cardiac death hospitalisation for heart failure at 12 months.MethodsWe did an international investigator-initiated, prospective, single-blind, randomised controlled trial (CONDI-2/ERIC-PPCI) 33...
Out-of-hospital cardiac arrest is a leading cause of death worldwide. Establishing vascular access critical for administering guideline-recommended drugs during cardiopulmonary resuscitation. Both the intraosseous route and intravenous are used routinely, but their comparative effectiveness remains unclear.
Background— Data on long-term function of out-of-hospital cardiac arrest survivors are sparse. We examined return to work as a proxy preserved without major neurologic deficits in survivors. Methods and Results— In Denmark, arrests have been systematically reported the Danish Cardiac Arrest Register since 2001. During 2001–2011, we identified 4354 patients employed before among 12 332 working-age (18–65 years), whom 796 survived day 30. Among (median age, 53 years [quartile 1–3, 46–59...
A criteria-based nationwide Emergency Medical Dispatch (EMD) system was recently implemented in Denmark. We described the and studied its ability to triage patients according severity of their condition by analysing hospital admission case-fatality risks. This a register-based follow-up study all 1-1-2 calls 6-month period that were triaged Danish Index – new dispatch protocol. data linked with vital status from national registries. Confidence intervals (95%) for proportions binomial...
Survival after out-of-hospital cardiac arrest has increased during the last decade in Denmark. We aimed to study impact of age on changes survival and whether it was possible identify patients with minimal chance 30-day survival.Using data from nationwide Danish Cardiac Arrest Registry (2001─2011), we identified 21 480 ≥18 years old a presumed cardiac-caused for which resuscitation attempted. Patients were divided into 3 preselected age-groups: working-age 18 65 (33.7%), early senior 66 80...
The aim of the Danish Cardiac Arrest Registry is to monitor quality prehospital cardiac arrest treatment, evaluate initiatives regarding treatment arrest, and facilitate research.All patients with in Denmark treated by emergency medical services whom resuscitation or defibrillation has been attempted.The Register records descriptive qualitative variables as outlined "Utstein" template for reporting out-of-hospital-cardiac arrest. Main include whether case was witnessed,...
To evaluate whether the distance from site of event to an invasive heart centre, acute coronary angiography (CAG)/percutaneous intervention (PCI) and hospital-level care (invasive centre vs. local hospital) is associated with survival in out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) patients.Nationwide historical follow-up study 41 186 unselected OHCA patients, whom resuscitation was attempted between 2001 2013, identified through Danish Cardiac Arrest Registry. We observed increase proportion...
Objective Knowledge about patients after calling for an ambulance is limited to subgroups, such as with cardiac arrest, myocardial infarction, trauma and stroke, while population-based studies including all diagnoses are few. We examined the diagnostic pattern mortality among brought hospital by emergency calls. Design Registry-based cohort study. Setting participants included in dispatched calls during 2007–2014 North Denmark Region (580 000 inhabitants). reported diagnosis according...
The rationale and study design for the multicentre, randomized, controlled CONDI2/ERIC-PPCI are discussed.
Acute pain is a frequent symptom, but little known about the frequency and causes of acute in prehospital population. The objectives this study were to investigate moderate severe among patients underlying according primary hospital diagnose codes. This was register-based on 41.241 transported by ambulance. Information [Numeric Rating Scale (NRS, 0–10) > 3 or higher 4-point likert scale] extracted from national electronic patient record. Patient information merged with codes based 10th...
Objective Demand for ambulances is growing. Nevertheless, knowledge limited regarding diagnoses and outcomes in patients receiving emergency ambulances. This study aims to examine time trends mortality among transported with ambulance hospital. Design Population-based cohort linkage of Danish national registries. Setting The North Denmark Region 2007–2014. Participants Cohort 148 757 hospital by after calling services. Main outcome measures number service patients, distribution their age,...
