Cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) is a first-line therapy for sudden cardiac arrest, while extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) has traditionally been used as a means of countering circulatory failure. However, new advances dictate that CPR and ECMO could be complementary for support after cardiac arrest. This review details the emerging science, technology, and clinical application that are enabling the new paradigm of these iconic circulatory support modalities in the setting of cardiac arrest.

Which Brugada patient deserves continuous ECG monitoring through implantable loop recorder? An evidence update.
J Cardiovasc Med (Hagerstown)
February 2025
Division of Cardiology, Department of Pharmacy, Health and Nutritional Sciences, University of Calabria, Rende (CS).
Brugada syndrome (BrS) is a genetic condition that increases the risk of life-threatening arrhythmias, which can result in sudden cardiac death (SCD). Implantable loop recorders (ILRs) have become a key tool in managing patients with unexplained syncope, and guidelines advise their use in individuals with recurrent, unexplained syncope or palpitations. However, the role of ILRs in inherited arrhythmic conditions like BrS remains a topic of debate.

Introduction: Data on circumstances of sudden cardiac arrest (SCA) in Germany are limited. The present study aimed to investigate systematically the current pre- and in-hospital circumstances of a SCA cohort at young age (65 years or younger) in Germany.
Methods: In the period from 2010 to 2021, we enrolled 191 consecutive patients with SCA at a university hospital in the Ruhr area, Germany.
Successful extracorporeal membrane oxygenation for heart failure after adolescent idiopathic scoliosis surgery.
Eur Spine J
January 2025
Department of Orthopedic, MacKay Memorial Hospital, No. 92, Sec. 2, Zhongshan N. Rd, Taipei, Taiwan.
Purpose: Spine surgery, particularly deformity correction, is associated with a high risk of peri-operative or post-operative complications, and these complications can lead to catastrophic consequences. This case report will present the etiology and treatment process of the peri-operative cardiac arrest during scoliosis correction surgery.
Method: In this report, we present a case of cardiac arrest during posterior correction surgery in a 17-year-old female patient with adolescent idiopathic scoliosis.

Department of Anesthesiology & Critical Care, Perelman School of Medicine at the University of Pennsylvania, Children's Hospital of Philadelphia 3401 Civic Center Blvd., Philadelphia, PA 19104, USA.
Aim: Adherence to post-cardiac arrest care (PCAC) recommendations is associated with improved outcomes for adults. We aimed to describe the survival impact of meeting American Heart Association (AHA) PCAC guidelines in children after cardiac arrest.
Methods: We conducted a retrospective study using Get With The Guidelines® Resuscitation's (GWTG®-R) registry to describe the PCAC of patients ≤ 18 years old who suffered an in-hospital or out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (IHCA or OHCA).
Peri-Intubation Cardiac Arrest in a Patient With Hypertensive Cardiac Tamponade.

Emergency Medicine, Barts Health NHS Trust, London, GBR.
Cardiac tamponade is widely known to be associated with life-threatening hypotension and rarely with hypertension. We present the case of a 53-year-old woman with hypertension and echocardiographic features of tamponade who had a cardiac arrest on intubation. The paradoxical hypertension is thought to be due to tachycardia and increased peripheral vascular resistance resulting from the compensatory sympathetic surge following impaired cardiac filling caused by the effusion.
