Out-of-hospital cardiac arrests represent impactful events. Despite the evolution of care, they are still associated with high morbidity and mortality. We present the analysis of our activity included in the 2023 CHC - Bcar registry in Liege area (Belgium). A cardiac massage is initiated by bystander in more than 50 % of cases. However, we must remember the crucial aspect of early resuscitation and defibrillation to improve outcome, just like the training of the general public in life-saving actions.

Background: There is scarce data on the prognostic value of frailty in patients with Takotsubo cardiomyopathy (TCM). This study aimed to assess the association between frailty and in-hospital outcomes in patients with TCM.
Methods: Adult admissions with TCM were included using the 2016-2019 National Inpatient Sample database.
Lifting the Burden of Sudden Cardiac Arrest Through International Collaboration: The PARQ Project (EU-COST Action).

Department of Clinical and Experimental Cardiology, Amsterdam University Medical Center, University of Amsterdam Amsterdam, the Netherlands.
Background: Chronic kidney disease (CKD) increases cardiac arrest (CA) risk because of renal and cardiovascular interactions.
Methods: Using Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) data from 1999 to 2020, we analyzed CKD-related CA mortality and the impact of social vulnerability index (SVI).
Results: We identified 336 494 CKD-related CA deaths, with stable age-adjusted mortality rates over time.

Objective: To describe the six-month functional outcomes of patients who received extracorporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitation (ECPR) following in-hospital cardiac arrest (IHCA) in Australia.
Design: Secondary analysis of EXCEL registry data.
Setting: EXCEL is a high-quality, prospective, binational registry including adult patients who receive extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) in Australia and New Zealand.
Anomalous Aortic Origin of a Coronary Artery in Pediatric Patients.
Curr Pediatr Rep
May 2024
Coronary Artery Anomalies Program, Division of Cardiology, Texas Children's Hospital, 6651 Main Street MC-E1920, Houston, TX 77030 USA.
Purpose Of Review: We present a contemporary approach to risk assessment and management of patients with anomalous aortic origin of a coronary artery (AAOCA).
Recent Findings: Anomalous left coronary artery from the right aortic sinus (L-AAOCA) with interarterial course carries a high risk of sudden cardiac death (SCD); therefore, current guidelines recommend exercise restriction and surgical intervention. Recent data in intraseptal and juxtacommissural L-AAOCA showed inducible perfusion abnormalities, leading to consideration of surgical intervention.
