Aim: To describe the incidence, characteristics, success rates, and outcomes of out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) patients receiving cricothyroidotomy.
Methods: Over an 18-year period, we retrospectively analysed patient care records and cardiac arrest registry data for cricothyroidotomy cases. Multivariable logistic regression analysis was used to examine associations between study characteristics and cricothyroidotomy success.
Background: Acoustic telemetry has become a fundamental tool to monitor the movement of aquatic species. Advances in technology, in particular the development of batteries with lives of > 10 years, have increased our ability to track the long-term movement patterns of many species. However, logistics and financial constraints often dictate the locations and deployment duration of acoustic receivers.

- Scientists are studying how to make more of the healthy part of the liver before surgery, which is important for patients with liver issues.
- They used a special MRI test to check the condition of the liver in 10 patients before and after a procedure called dual vein embolization (DVE).
- After the DVE, the patients showed better liver health and increased healthy liver volume, which helps in avoiding problems during major liver surgery.
