Cardiac arrest (CA) is a major health problem, affecting ~ 300,000 individuals in the US each year. There is a great interest in finding early prognostic biomarkers of the outcome of CA patients. No reliable prognostic indicators of the outcome when measured within 72 h after CA are ...
We performed a study to determine if the measurement of expired PCO 2 during CPR for cardiac arrest could be used as a prognostic indicator of successful resuscitation. Twelve mongrel dogs were fibrillated electrically, and external chest massage and assisted ventilation were applied for 15 minutes....
Objective: To report the outcomes of patients with a cardiac arrest occurring in an accident and emergency department and discuss whether this would be an appropriate measure of performance of the department. Design: A 6-year retrospective study of cardiac arrests occurring within the accident and ...
Predicting neurological outcomes in patients with post-cardiac arrest syndrome (PCAS) is crucial for identifying those who will benefit from intensive care. We evaluated the predictive value of 18F-FDG PET. PCAS was induced in Sprague Dawley rats. Baseline and post-3-hour images were acquired. ...
In a porcine model of cardiac arrest, the intravascular pressure measured during circulatory standstill was positively correlated with the success of cardiopulmonary resuscitation. When volume was expanded before cardiac arrest, circulat... W Grundler,MH Weil,EC Rackow - 《Critical Care Medicine》 被引...

A dose of 300 mL/m2 body surface area was initially infused into the aortic root at a pressure of 30 mm Hg to achieve cardiac arrest, with subsequent doses of 150 mL/m2 body surface area infused every 20 minutes. In all patients an additional dose of 300 mL/m2 body surface area warm...
Two babies in this series developed spastic paresis, both of whom had normal Apgar scores but high hypoxanthine concentrations. One newborn baby with cardiac arrest had a hypoxanthine level after resuscitation exceeding 200 pmol/liter. This study suggests that plasma hy- poxanthine concentrations are...
Intracellular pH in the intact, normally perfused rat brain cortex was determined by rapid scanning reflectance spectrophotometry of Neutral Red. Neutral Red, a pH indicator dye, was administered intraperitoneally to rats. Reflectance spectra recorded from the exposed dural surface of 11 anesthetized rats...
Pulse rate as an alternative, real-time feedback indicator for chest compression rate: a porcine model of cardiac arrest Feedback indicators can improve chest compression quality during cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR). However, the application of feedback indicators in the clinic practice is rare....
