In contrast to adults, cardiac arrest in infants and children does not usually result from a primary cardiac cause. More often it is the terminal result of progressive respiratory failure or shock, also called an asphyxial arrest. Asphyxia begins with a variable period of systemic hypoxemia, hypercapnea, and acidosis, progresses to bradycardia and hypotension, and culminates with cardiac arrest...
PURPOSE OF THE STUDY Arterial hyperoxia during care in the intensive care unit (ICU) has been found to correlate with mortality after cardiac arrest (CA). We examined the prevalence of hyperoxia following CA including pre-ICU values and studied differences between those exposed and those not exposed to define predictors of exposure. MATERIALS AND METHODS A retrospective analysis of a prospect...
AIM (1) To identify risk factors for in-hospital cardiac arrest; (2) to formulate activation criteria to alert a clinical response culminating in attendance by a Medical Emergency Team (MET); (3) to evaluate the sensitivity and specificity of the scoring system. METHODS Quasi-experimental design to determine prevalence of risk factors for cardiac arrest in the hospitalised population. Weighti...
OBJECTIVE To analyse the present day characteristics and outcome of cardio-respiratory arrest in children in Spain. DESIGN An 18-month prospective, multicentre study analysing out-of-hospital and in-hospital cardio-respiratory arrest in children. PATIENTS AND METHODS Two hundred and eighty-three children between 7 days and 17 years of age with cardio-respiratory arrest. Data were recorded a...
OBJECTIVES 1) To describe clinical characteristics, hospital courses, and outcomes of a cohort of children cared for within the Pediatric Emergency Care Applied Research Network who experienced in-hospital cardiac arrest with sustained return of circulation between July 1, 2003 and December 31, 2004, and 2) to identify factors associated with hospital mortality in this population. These data ar...
Although early care in out-of-hospital cardiac arrest has been improved over the past decades, survival remains poor and neurological performance after survival is often impaired. Consequently, new therapies are needed to improve outcome. As thrombotic processes such as acute myocardial infarction or pulmonary embolism are frequent causes of cardiac arrest, therapies like fibrinolysis or percut...
BACKGROUND Each year, about 500,000 people suffer a cardiac arrest (either out-of-hospital or in-hospital) in the USA. Although significant improvements in survival have occurred through the implementation of complex high-quality protocols of care, global costs related to such management are not clearly described. METHODS We will undertake a systematic review of the published literature on co...
In 2005, the European Resuscitation Council (ERC) guidelines stated: Unconscious adult patients with spontaneous circulation after out-of-hospital ventricular fibrillation cardiac arrest should be cooled to 32 to 34 degrees C for 12 to 24 hours. Patients with cardiac arrest from a non-shockable rhythm, in-hospital patients and children may also benefit from hypothermia. There is no argument to ...
BACKGROUND Research on cardiac arrest and cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) has considerably increased in recent decades, and international guidelines for resuscitation have been implemented and have undergone several changes. Very little is known about the prevalence and management of in-hospital cardiac arrest in low-resource settings. We therefore sought to determine the prevalence, outcom...
