Knowledge About Basic Life Support Among University Students.
Cureus
December 2024
Critical Care Unit, Unidade Local de Saúde da Cova da Beira, Covilhã, PRT.
Background: Basic life support (BLS) is an essential skill set for responding to emergencies like cardiac arrest. However, the level of preparedness and interest in BLS among university students remains underexplored, especially in nonmedical populations.
Methods: This study surveyed 427 University of Beira Interior (UBI) students to assess their knowledge, confidence, and interest in BLS training.
Lithium-induced nephrogenic diabetes insipidus following improved medication compliance: a case report.
J Med Case Rep
January 2025
Department of Internal Medicine, University of Illinois College of Medicine, Peoria, IL, 61637, USA.
Background: Nephrogenic diabetes insipidus is a rare, often underrecognized complication of long-term lithium therapy. Lithium-induced nephrogenic diabetes insipidus results from chronic renal exposure, leading to significant polyuria, dehydration, and hypernatremia.
Case Presentation: We describe a case of a 55-year-old White caucasian male with a schizoaffective disorder managed with lithium who presented with altered mental status and electrolyte abnormalities following a recent stroke.
Longitudinal analysis of in-hospital cardiac arrest: trends in the incidence, mortality, and long-term survival of a nationwide cohort.
Crit Care
January 2025
Department of Anesthesiology, Linkou Medical Center, Chang Gung Memorial Hospital, Chang Gung University, No. 5, Fusing St, Guishan District, Taoyuan City, 33305, Taiwan.
Background: In-hospital cardiac arrest (IHCA) poses a considerable threat to hospitalized patients, leading to high mortality rates and severe neurological deficits among survivors. Despite the advancements in resuscitation practices, the prognosis of IHCA remains poor, and comprehensive studies exploring nationwide trends and long-term survival are scarce, particularly in the Asian populations.
Methods: Utilizing data from the Taiwan National Health Insurance Research Database, we conducted a nationwide cohort study to analyze the IHCA events among adult patients between 2003 and 2020.
Sex disparities in ICU care and outcomes after cardiac arrest: a Swiss nationwide analysis.
Crit Care
January 2025
Intensive Care Unit, Department of Acute Medicine, University Hospital Basel, Petersgraben 5, 4031, Basel, Switzerland.
Background: Conflicting data exist regarding sex-specific outcomes after cardiac arrest. This study investigates sex disparities in the provision of critical care and outcomes of in-hospital (IHCA) and out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) patients.
Methods: Analysis of adult cardiac arrest patients admitted to certified Swiss intensive care units (ICUs) (01/2008-12/2022) using the nationwide prospective ICU registry.

We report the case of a young patient with severe hypoxic brain injury after cardiopulmonary resuscitation, resulting in brain death/death by neurologic criteria (BD/DNC). Consistent with the patient's expressed wishes, treatment was sustained to facilitate organ donation. However, in the context of a severe post-resuscitation syndrome and physiological disturbances resulting from BD/DNC, refractory circulatory shock ensued.
