AHA: Other Defibrillation Strategies Studied for Refractory V-Fib
Survival to hospital discharge higher with use of double sequential external defibrillation compared with standard defibrillation
Antiseizure Treatment Explored in Comatose Cardiac Arrest Survivors
Strategy to suppress rhythmic and periodic EEG patterns did not improve neurologic outcomes at three months
Total Alcohol Intake Not Linked to Ventricular Arrhythmia Risk
Total alcohol intake has U-shaped association with sudden cardiac death; beer, cider, spirits linked to increased risk
Simulation Can Improve Time to First Shock in IHCA
Online education and code simulation improves performance of intensive care unit nurses when responding to in-hospital cardiac arrests
Bystander Rescue Breathing CPR Beneficial for Pediatric OHCA
Odds of neurologically favorable survival improved for RB-CPR versus compression-only CPR
Dietary Patterns May Affect Risk for Sudden Cardiac Death
Greater adherence to Southern dietary pattern linked to higher risk for sudden cardiac death, but the association was not statistically significant
AAP: Screen All Children for Risk for Sudden Cardiac Arrest, Death
Because no single screening strategy can detect all conditions associated with SCA, CPR training in the community is important
Presumed Sudden Cardiac Death Rates Up for Individuals With HIV
Among individuals with versus without known HIV infection, sudden cardiac death due to occult drug overdose was more common
Machine Learning Model Predicts Out-of-Hospital Cardiac Arrest
Sunday, Monday, holiday, winter, low ambient temperature, large interday or intraday temperature difference strongly linked to OHCA
Discharge to Survival After Out-of-Hospital Cardiac Arrest Lower for Women
Among patients who were not made DNR and did not have withdrawal of life-sustaining therapy, women had lower discharge survival
