Predictors of survival after cardiac arrest in outpatient hemodialysis clinics.

Cardiac arrest (CA) is the most common cause of death in hemodialysis patients, and factors that improve survival after arrest are unknown. This study sought to identify modifiable factors that are associated with survival after CA in hemodialysis clinics. Patients who experienced in-center CA in the Gambro Healthcare System in the United States from 2002 to 2005 were identified. Patient charac...

Acute kidney injury after cardiac arrest

AIM Cardiac arrest (CA) in humans causes warm renal ischemia-reperfusion injury, similar to animal models of ischemic acute kidney injury (AKI). We aimed to investigate the incidence and risk associations of AKI after CA, with or without post-resuscitation cardiogenic shock (PRCS). METHODS We examined the renal outcomes of adult patients admitted to the intensive care unit (ICU), who survived...
