Cardiac arrestTargeted temperature managementEjection fractionCentral nervous systemHeart failure, adultBackground:There is strong data about the neuroprotective effects of targeted temperature management (TTM) in patients post cardiac arrest, however, there is limited literature on the cardiac effects. We ...
The advisory also discussed treatment for high blood sugar, seizures and infection, all of which are common concerns after cardiac arrest resuscitation. Also, inserting an implantable cardioverter defibrillator (ICD) is indicated for many patients with good neurological function. Source: American Heart A...
ICD for secondary prevention (i.e., in patients resuscitated from cardiac arrest due to VT/VF) is recommended for patients within 90 days of revascularization who have: - previously satisfied criteria for ICD implantation if they have abnormal left ventricular function or - SCD is unlikely...
post-cardiac arrest myocardial dysfunction, the systemic ischaemia/reperfusion response, and the persistent precipitating pathology [18,19,20,21]. The severity of this syndrome will vary with the duration and cause of cardiac arrest. It may not occur at all if the cardiac arrest is brief....
Cases were determined in the HES database using ICD-10 codes in the primary diagnostic position across all episodes in a single hospitalization. The date of admission was the date of the case (index date, HF or AF/flutter, respectively). Extended case definitions are in Supplementary Table 3...

(ICD) processed by presenilin and γ-secretase enzymes. ADAM10 ICD immunoreactivity was visible in a nuclear speckle-like compartment that contains interchromatin bodies that concentrate proteins involved in mRNA production, splicing, and maturation, similar to what has been described for Notch- and ...
On hospital day 2, she developed circulatory collapse and cardiac arrest. Cardiopulmonary resuscitation resulted in return of spontaneous circulation. Contrast CT revealed massive right hemothorax and extravasation from a right subclavian vein (SCV) varicosity. To control the massive hemorrhage, we ...
A cardiac rhythm management device is configured to discriminate between ventricular and supraventricular tachycardias (referred to as SVT/VT discrimination) by utilizing a morphology criterion in whi
