Pediatric Intubation

IntubationCardiac Arrest

The aim of the study was to compare time and success rates of TruView PCD video laryngoscope and Macintosh laryngoscope for the pediatric emergency intubation with three airway scenarios in a standardized manikin model.

The Schmitz-Hinkelbein Method. A New Technique for CPR in Space.

Cardiac Arrest

The risk of a severe medical event during long-duration spaceflight is significant and can endanger both the whole mission and crew. There is a certain risk for a cardiac arrest in space requiring cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR). So far, 5 known techniques to perform CPR in microgravity have been reported. The aim of the present study was to describe and gather data for two new CPR techniques useful in microgravity.

Estimation of CPR Chest Compression Depth

Cardiac Arrest

Optimal chest compression depth during CPR is 4.56cm which is at variance with the current guidelines of 5.0-6.0cm. A change in guidelines is only worthwhile if healthcare professionals can accurately judge a subtle reduction in chest compression depth during CPR by a relatively small amount.

Norwegian Cardio-Respiratory Arrest Study

Cardiac ArrestRespiratory Arrest1 more

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the use of combined clinical-neurological, neurophysiologic, neuroradiological and biochemical markers in prognostication after cardio- and/or respiratory arrest.

Time to Defibrillation Using Automated External Defibrillators by Pediatric Residents in Simulated...

Pediatric Residents

Automated external defibrillators have improved survival for adult in hospital cardiac arrest. Automated external defibrillators are approved for children aged 1 year and older for out of hospital cardiac arrests. It is unknown whether automated external defibrillators have a role for in hospital pediatric cardiac arrests. The purpose of study is to compare the management of cardiac rhythm disorders by pediatric residents using an automated external defibrillator versus a standard defibrillator in simulated pediatric cardiac arrests. It is our hypothesis that residents using an automated external defibrillator will have a shorter time to defibrillation.

MIHS Emergency Department CPR Quality Improvement Project

Cardiac Arrest

The investigators will quantify the quality of chest compressions provided in the Emergency Department and determine whether the quality of chest compressions is related to patient outcome. The quality of chest compressions and patient outcomes will be assessed both before and after the introduction of audiovisual feedback in real time.

Dispatcher-Assisted Resuscitation Trial (DART)

Heart Arrest

The purpose of this study is to determine whether dispatcher-assisted CPR instructions with compressions and ventilations versus dispatcher-assisted CPR instructions with compressions only improves survival from out-of-hospital cardiac arrests.

Quality of Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation Without and With Defibrillator Feedback

Cardiac Arrest

Quality of bystander cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) affect patient survival. Quality of professional CPR on patients has not been studied in detail, but it is regularly reported that the quality when tested on manikins deteriorates dramatically within months after training. Automated direct feedback on CPR quality from manikins brings quality back within a couple of minutes. Similar feedback has been incorporated into a defibrillator which also monitors quality of CPR. We hypothesise that quality of professional clinical CPR improves with such feedback

The Care After Life-threatening Medical Events Study

Cardiac ArrestFear

This study tests the feasibility of a home-based heart rate variability biofeedback (HRVB) intervention in survivors of cardiac arrest (CA). Specifically, the primary purpose of this pilot study is to assess feasibility, acceptability, appropriateness, usability, and compliance for an at-home, 3-week HRVB intervention in 10 participants. The study also tests whether cardiac-related interoceptive fear, trait anxiety, and negative affect decrease among CA survivors completing the HRVB intervention.

Swecrit Biobank - Blood Samples From Critically Ill Patients and Healthy Controls

Critical IllnessCardiac Arrest4 more

Blood samples are collected and stored in a biobank for later analysis of circulating substances in peripheral blood and genetic variations in patients with severe critical illness and risk of death. The aim is to analyze stored samples in order to identify substances that can help predict the outcome of critically ill patients, but also to optimize treatment and possibly prevent serious illness and death in the future.
