Aim: Pulmonary Embolism (PE) is a relatively common cardiovascular condition, occasionally and tragically manifesting as Sudden Cardiac Arrest (SCA). The natural history of SCA complicating PE has been poorly evaluated.In this study, we described the management and outcome of PE-related SCA.

A Pre-Hospital Extracorporeal Cardio Pulmonary Resuscitation (ECPR) strategy for treatment of refractory out hospital cardiac arrest: An observational study and propensity analysis.

Resuscitation

August 2017

SAMU de Paris and intensive care unit, Necker Hospital, Assistance Publique-Hopitaux de Paris (APHP), 149 rue de de Sevres 75015 Paris, France; Universite, Paris Descartes-Sorbonne Paris Cite, Paris, France.

Background: Out of hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) mortality rates remain very high with poor neurological outcome in survivors. Extracorporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitation (ECPR) is one of the treatments of refractory OHCA. This study used data from the mobile intensive care unit (MOICU) as part of the emergency medical system of Paris, and included all consecutive patients treated with ECPR (including pre-hospital ECPR) from 2011 to 2015 for the treatment of refractory OHCA, comparing two historical ECPR management strategies.

Opening a new front in the fight against sudden cardiac death: Is it time for near-term prevention?

Int J Cardiol

Paris Sudden Death Expertise Center, Paris, France; Paris Cardiovascular Research Center (PARCC), INSERM Unit 970, Paris, France; AP-HP, Cardiology Department, Hôpital Européen Georges Pompidou, Paris, France; Paris Descartes University, Paris, France. Electronic address:

Sudden cardiac death (SCD) is a major issue of public health with more than 350,000 deaths per year in the United States, accounting for almost half of cardiovascular mortality. Despite major investments in both prevention and resuscitation, SCD mortality remains high, highlighting the need for a novel approach to reduce SCD burden. We hereby propose a new approach - near-term prevention - that is based on Anticipation, aiming to ensure that resuscitation will be initiated early enough after SCD, or even that prophylactic therapy will be initiated in this well targeted population for preventing SCD occurrence.

Post-cardiac arrest shock treated with veno-arterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation: An observational study and propensity-score analysis.

Resuscitation

January 2017

Paris-Cardiovascular-Research-Center, INSERM U970, Paris, France; Université Paris-Descartes-Sorbonne-Paris-Cité, Paris, France; Paris Sudden-Death-Expertise-Center, Paris, France; Medical ICU, Cochin Hospital, AP-HP, Paris, France. Electronic address:

Purpose: Cardiogenic shock due to post-resuscitation myocardial dysfunction is a major cause of mortality among patients hospitalized after cardiac arrest (CA). Veno-arterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VA-ECMO) has been proposed in the most severe cases but the level of evidence is very low. We assessed characteristics, outcome and prognostic factors of patients treated with VA-ECMO for post-CA shock.

Purpose: Although prolonged unconsciousness after cardiac arrest (CA) is a sign of poor neurological outcome, limited evidence shows that a late recovery may occur in a minority of patients. We investigated the prevalence and the predictive factors of delayed awakening in comatose CA survivors treated with targeted temperature management (TTM).

Methods: Retrospective analysis of the Parisian Region Out-of-Hospital CA Registry (2008-2013).

Aims: Survival after out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) remains disappointingly low. Among patients admitted alive, early prognostication remains challenging. This study aims to establish a stratification score for patients admitted in intensive care unit (ICU) after OHCA, according to their neurological outcome.

Gender and survival after sudden cardiac arrest: A systematic review and meta-analysis.

Resuscitation

September 2015

Paris Descartes University, France; Paris Cardiovascular Research Center - INSERM U970 (PARCC), France; Paris Sudden Death Expertise Center, Paris, France; Cardiology Department, European Georges Pompidou Hospital, Paris, France.

Background: Conflicting results exist regarding the impact of gender on early survival after sudden cardiac arrest (SCA). We aimed to assess the association between female gender and early SCA survival.

Methods: We searched Embase, MEDLINE, EBM Reviews, Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials, and Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews (between 1948 and January 2014) for studies evaluating the association between gender and survival after SCA.
