OHCA (out-of-hospital cardiac arrest) patients have improved neurological outcomes with public-access automated external defibrillator (PAD) use. However, the benefit of epinephrine administration after PAD use remains controversial. The purpose of the study was to investigate the impact of epinephrine administration on neurological outcomes in OHCA patients after PAD use.

Aim: Targeted temperature management (TTM) for patients undergoing extracorporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitation (ECPR) has not been fully studied. This study aimed to investigate the association between blood glucose levels during TTM and neurological outcomes in out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) patients undergoing ECPR.
Methods: This was a secondary analysis of the SAVE-J II study, a retrospective, multicenter study of OHCA patients treated with ECPR in Japan.

Objective: To compare the neurological outcomes of out-of-hospital cardiac arrest due to anaphylaxis (OHCA-A) and cardiac causes (OHCA-C).
Design: Retrospective observational study.
Setting: Japanese nationwide dataset from 2012 to 2021.

Comments were made on some thought-provoking articles, which included articles that dealt with cardiac arrest (CA). Two articles on CA elaborate on the role of automated compression devices to provide chest compressions during cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) in "hostile" environments and on a predictive model in cases of out-of-hospital CA (OHCA). CPR after CA has been practiced for centuries, and the evolution until current modern-day practices are discussed.

Background And Importance: Prolonged emergency medical services' response times (EMS-RT) are associated with poorer outcomes in out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA). The patient access time interval (PATI), from vehicle stop until contact with patient, may be increased in areas with low socioeconomic status (SES).
Objectives: The objective of this study is to identify predictors of prolonged EMS-RT intervals, and to evaluate associations with clinical outcomes in OHCAs occurring in the largest metropolitan area in France.
