Clinical practice recommendations on the management of perioperative cardiac arrest: A report from the PERIOPCA Consortium
(2021)Background: Perioperative cardiac arrest is a rare complication with an incidence of around 1 in 1400 cases, but it carries a high burden of mortality reaching up to 70% at 30 days. Despite its specificities, guidelines ... -
Continuous chest compressions with asynchronous ventilation improve survival in a neonatal swine model of asphyxial cardiac arrest
(2021)Background: Guidelines for neonatal resuscitation recommend a 3:1 compression to ventilation ratio. However, this recommendation is based on expert opinion and consensus rather than strong scientific evidence. Our primary ... -
Exposure to Stress-Dose Steroids and Lethal Septic Shock After In-Hospital Cardiac Arrest: Individual Patient Data Reanalysis of Two Prior Randomized Clinical Trials that Evaluated the Vasopressin–Steroids–Epinephrine Combination Versus Epinephrine Alone
(2018)Purpose: Low-dose steroids may reduce the mortality of severely ill patients with septic shock. We sought to determine whether exposure to stress-dose steroids during and/or after cardiopulmonary resuscitation is associated ... -
Knowledge of cardiopulmonary resuscitation among Greek physiotherapists
(2019)High quality cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) is crucial for influencing survival from cardiac arrest. Healthcare professionals are expected to know how to perform CPR as they may encounter emergency situations during ... -
Personalized physiology-guided resuscitation in highly monitored patients with cardiac arrest—the PERSEUS resuscitation protocol
(2019)Resuscitation guidelines remain uniform across all cardiac arrest patients, focusing on the delivery of chest compressions to a standardized rate and depth and algorithmic vasopressor dosing. However, individualizing ... -
Stress hormones kinetics in ventricular fibrillation cardiac arrest and resuscitation: Translational and therapeutic implications
(2021)Background: Knowing the kinetics of endogenous stress hormones during cardiac arrest and cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CRP) will help to optimize personalized physiology-guided treatment. The aim of this study was to ...
