Survival for Nonshockable Cardiac Arrests Treated With Noninvasive Circulatory Adjuncts and Head/Thorax Elevation.

Objectives: Cardiac arrests remain a leading cause of death worldwide. Most patients have nonshockable electrocardiographic presentations (asystole/pulseless electrical activity). Despite well-performed basic and advanced cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) interventions, patients with these presentations have always faced unlikely chances of survival.

Rationale and Strategies for Development of an Optimal Bundle of Management for Cardiac Arrest.

Objectives: To construct a highly detailed yet practical, attainable roadmap for enhancing the likelihood of neurologically intact survival following sudden cardiac arrest.

Design Setting And Patients: Population-based outcomes following out-of-hospital cardiac arrest were collated for 10 U.S.

Association of race and socioeconomic status with the rate of bystander-initiated CPR in Memphis.

Study Objective: This study evaluated the association of race and socioeconomic status with the rate of bystander cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) in out-of-hospital cardiac arrest in Memphis, TN and compared it to 25 years prior.

Methods: This was a retrospective cross-sectional study of out-of-hospital cardiac arrest events in the Memphis area from 2012-2018. The primary outcome of interest was the provision of bystander CPR.
