Organ donation after cardiac arrest algorithm. *Includes a 24-h observation period after rewarming to 36 °C before clinical testing for brain death/death by neurological criteria [406].WLSTwithdrawal of life sustaining treatment Full size image Cardiac arrest centres Adult patients with non-traumatic...
We developed an automated processing algorithm for HCT images to be registered, atlas-segmented in 181 regions, and region-specific radiologic densities determined in Hounsfield Units. This approach was compared with an established manual method evaluating grey-white matter ratios (GWR). We tested ...
An algorithm for postcardiac arrest care tailored for use in the ED can assist in providing this care in a busy and chaotic environment using readily available resources. This chapter outlines the evidence supporting aggressive postcardiac arrest care in the ED, protocols for performing effective ...
Permanent brain damage caused by ischemia and reperfusion that results from disease processes such as stroke and cardiac arrest (CA) with resuscitation has been estimated to affect approx 200,000 patients in the United States annually (1). Neuronal damage from stroke and CA occur by different mech...
The algorithm's ascendant hierarchical clustering was employed for clustering and a bootstrap approach used to determine suitable numbers of clusters (see Fig. S1, in supplemental material). Then, the variables selected would become inputs to logistic regression analysis. To find predictors of death...
The applied computational architecture was multilayer perceptron (MLP), a feed-forward ANN, combined with back-propagation algorithm for training the feed-forward ANNs. To train the ANN, supervised learning was performed by providing a series of input and output variables from the training dataset, ...
(TFD) algorithm, providing a rigorous method to simulate post-mortem temperatures of bodies assuming a straight posture. However, in forensic practice, bodies are often found in non-straight postures, potentially limiting applicability of this algorithm in these cases. Here, we develop an ...
People were eligible for inclusion in that original cohort study if they met the following criteria: 1) aged 40 years or older, 2) had a COPD diagnosis using a validated algorithm (86.5% PPV) [26] 3) were eligible for linkage with HES, ONS, and IMD data, 4) had a smoking history ...
