Investigating BLS instructors' ability to evaluate CPR performance: focus on compression depth, rate, and recoil.
BMC Emerg Med
January 2025
Department of Emergency Medicine, College of Medicine, National Cheng Kung University Hospital, National Cheng Kung University, No.138, Sheng Li Road, Tainan city, 704, Taiwan.
Background: Out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) presents significant challenges with low survival rates, emphasizing the need for effective bystander CPR training. In Basic Life Support (BLS) training, the role of instructors is pivotal as they assess and correct learners' cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) techniques to ensure proficiency in life-saving skills. This study evaluates the concordance between CPR quality assessments by Basic Life Support (BLS) instructors and those determined through Quantitative CPR (QCPR) devices, utilizing data from BLS courses conducted at National Cheng Kung University Hospital from October 2017 to April 2018.

BMJ Open
January 2025
Cardiac Rehabilitation, University Hospitals Coventry and Warwickshire NHS Trust, Coventry, UK.
Background: This qualitative evaluation was embedded in the Rehabilitation Exercise and psycholoGical support After COVID-19 InfectioN (REGAIN) study, a randomised controlled trial (RCT) for those with post-COVID-19 condition ('long COVID') after hospital admission for COVID-19, comparing weekly home-based, live online supervised group exercise and psychological support sessions with 'best practice usual care' (a single session of advice).
Objective: To increase our understanding of how and why the REGAIN programme might have worked and what helped or hindered this intervention.
Design: A qualitative evaluation which utilised interviews with participants and practitioners delivering the intervention.
Barriers and facilitators to global access to life-saving skills training: an international cross-sectional survey.
BMJ Open
January 2025
Department of Epidemiology and Biostatistics, School of Public Health, Shanghai Jiao Tong University, Shanghai, China.
Introduction: Emergency care begins in the community, who are often the first on the scene. Where emergency care systems are nascent or absent, bystanders represent the only prehospital emergency care that victims might receive. It is important to equip bystanders through life-saving skills training (LST).

J Pediatr Surg
January 2025
Division of Pediatric Surgery, Department of Surgery, Phoenix Children's Hospital, Phoenix AZ, USA.
Background: Although Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation (ECMO) utilization in pediatric patients with cardiopulmonary failure due to infection improves mortality, it is unclear whether the infectious etiology impacts outcomes. The aim of this study is to compare ECMO outcomes in children with sepsis and severe acute lung injury secondary to infections based on culture data.
Methods: A retrospective review was done of patients aged <18 with severe infections whose management included ECMO from 2013 to 2022 at a quaternary children's hospital.
Utilization of cardiopulmonary bypass at radical nephrectomy for renal cell carcinoma with tumour thrombus.
BJUI Compass
January 2025
Department of Urology, Feinberg School of Medicine Northwestern University Chicago Illinois USA.
Objectives: The objective of this study is to evaluate preoperative factors associated with cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) utilization and outcomes for patients with renal cell carcinoma (RCC) and tumour thrombus (TT). Radical nephrectomy with thrombectomy is a standard treatment for patients with RCC and associated TT. Morbidity and mortality rates tend to correlate with aggressiveness of tumour and TT level.
