Extracorporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitation (ECPR) improves survival for prolonged cardiac arrest (CA) but carries significant risks and costs due to ECMO. Previous predictive models have been complex, incorporating both clinical data and parameters obtained after CPR or ECMO initiation. This study aims to compare a simpler clinical-only model with a model that includes both clinical and pre-ECMO laboratory parameters, to refine patient selection and improve ECPR outcomes.

Introduction: Cardiac arrest registries can benchmark, enhance quality of care and provide data for research. Key stakeholders from Emergency Medical Communication Centre (EMCC), Emergency Medical Services (EMS), In-Hospital Care Providers (IHCP) and Recovery and Rehabilitation Providers (RRP) have different perspectives, and registry results and patient cohorts should be tailored to facilitate benchmarking, quality improvement projects and research in all sections of the chain of survival. In this paper, we describe different cohorts of interest, exemplified by data from the Norwegian Cardiac Arrest Registry (NorCAR).

Background: We aimed to analyze the yet unclear correlation between air pollutant concentrations (AP) and out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) in Shenzhen, China.
Methods: A 5-year time series analysis of all OHCA events reported to the Shenzhen Emergency Center was conducted. Quasi-Poisson regression, controlling for meteorological variables (daily mean relative temperature and humidity) with multivariable fractional polynomial and using Fourier series to adjust for long-term trends and account for periodic patterns, was used to assess the association among particulate matter of 2.

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).

Background: The Irish Out-of-Hospital Cardiac Arrest registry (OHCAR) collects data based on the internationally recognised Utstein template. The Utstein comparator group (bystander witnessed and initial shockable rhythm) has specific relevance in benchmarking out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) health system performance.
Aims: To describe OHCA in the Utstein comparator group during 2012 to 2020 in Ireland.
